        Been wondering how they detect how many videos you’ve watched without being logged in.

        Cookies can be cleared, IPs can be changed, and if we all use something like the Mullvad Browser fingerprinting will be far more difficult.

          I just spin up new virtual machines, with different flavors of linux. They’re all fairly interchangable at this point.
