In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like “headphone status” and “screen density.”
Why do you want them to know all this stuff about you? Also, all this data set on a timescale can be used to triangulate who you are in other data sets they have that are “anonymous”. It’s trivial to identify you based on a few converging data points.
