Ad Nauseam Browser Plugin, Obfuscation and Algorithm Sabotage
One of the hosts describes using "Ad Nauseam," a browser plugin that works with Adblock to click on every ad in the background. This tactic is intended to "befuddle" tracking algorithms by inundating them with bad data, making it impossible to build an accurate profile of the user. The hosts advocate for this type of "destructive work" as a way to resist corporate surveillance.
