      Yeah, looks like it scans everything in your browser. How Orwellian.

      (Not sure, but probably)

        Websites you visit can port scan your entire network bypassing most firewall rules and NAT. Your phone tracks your notifications and keystrokes and builds data models from both.

        People love it though. Or they hate technology. Anything but hating corporations and the rich that gives them that sweet sweet dopamine

              Not sure if I’m missing something here, but that scans ports on the localhost, it is not a port scan of your entire network. While that’s still crazy and not something you want, it’s not quite what you initially said, and I don’t believe they’d be able to scan outside of your machine

    UBO just blocks most of those scams without the use of any “AI”, but Google’s Manifest v3 prevents UBO from running on Chrome…

    Using a scam to detect scams so that they can scam you better themselves. Lovely. I’m so glad I don’t use Chrome.
