New research on ad-funded piracy centers on manga site Tu Manga Online (TMO). After switching to a new domain 'zonatmo.com' around September last year, it took just 90 days to transform a new start into half a billion visits per month. According to the research, the site's revenue generating scheme is an open secret. Yet, for unknown reasons, nobody tries to stop it.

There's a secret side of YouTube, just beyond the guiding hand of the algorithm – and it’s nothing like what you know. The vast majority of YouTube's estimated 14.8 billion videos have almost never been seen. Until now.

YSK: The Guardian, Wired and The Verge websites has more trackers than other news websites. in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

You can read the other websites without JavaScript as well.

Also, that might not stop all the trackers, as the webpages are loaded with their trackers.

What, if anything, should I do about using Mozilla's Firefox. in c/technology@lemmy.zip

(I am not the one who wrote this blog post)

I actually kind of trying different browsers on Android, but my setup is iron fox on my phone and brave on my desktop.

I think Firefox lost long time ago on the desktop, I never know why they don't focus on their market share on phones more(Firefox for Android started displaying pages weirdly in the last 2 weeks and they almost never add new futures to it.)

Anyway, I will be waiting for Servo in 2025.

You are right, I think it might worth suggesting it to the author on codeberg.

I am not the project leader.

There's too many unknowns

Public domain?

You can do with the project what ever you want with no restrictions.

No problem, I will resubmit later. I used the wrong article link anyway.

YouTube will place more mid-roll ads at natural breaks (e.g., pauses, transitions) and fewer in disruptive moments (e.g., mid-sentence, action scenes). in c/technology@lemmy.zip

Hate to be this guy, but in theory Youtube would be get aggressive towards both Firefox users(anti competition) and uBlock Origin users( to raise their revenue and to push for YouTube premium).

I hope uBlock Origin keep working forever, but I think at at some point YouTube will get more aggressive till adblock users will be unable to use Youtube.
