Developers, it’s time for you to choose a side: will you help rid the web of privacy-invading tracking or be complicit in it?

    The thing is Google has a big search monopoly and they do like to have Search Console and Analytics plugged in for a website they are indexing.

      We need to get rid of Google. They have effectively destroyed the internet. Let’s not forget how social media completely destroyed online discourse fuelled by pre-installations on smartphones and monopolized manipulative ad-ridden pre-installed software repositories (i.e: Google Play.)

      Not sure if monetization by ads will work no matter the source (aside from very aggressive and very clickbaity ads?). If you want some reliable monetization it would have to be some sort of sponsored cooperation, merchandise, or services.
