It's been known since around ~2010 that browsing the web with javascript enabled allows third parties to track you across the internet irrespective of whether you have DNT/cookies enabled or use incognito mode. It seems that now similar approaches can be used to track you even if you use different browsers [1] and the source is available if not fully complete [2].<p>Quite a good talk on this last year at MS Research[3].<p>This raises a question - will we see users start to disable javascript in the same way as they have started to enable DNT and (to a degree disable cookies)?<p>[1]:https://www.ghacks.net/2017/02/14/researchers-develop-cross-browser-fingerprinting-technique<p>[2]:https://github.com/Song-Li/cross_browser<p>[3]:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y1Y96jC5AA
1. To directly submit a link, leave the |text| field empty on the submit page.<p>2. Often there is little need to explain why a link was submitted because it is assumed that the person submitting it thought it was helpful or interesting.<p>3. But it is ok to add a regular comment after the story appears on the |new| page.<p>Good luck.
