Java is baxkbone of modern web app and a privacy and security nightmare.
JavaScript. Two very different things. Though Java can also be as it's used in backend quite a lot.

It's good to keep pounding this info to normies. Maybe they'll understand one day.

It's OK, they changed the headline to say "slurping" instead. Clearly much better.

Awesome explanation. Thank you! I've been getting more into privacy and security here and there and I've also degoogled with graphene, run brave with strict blocking, VPN with ad blocking, etc. I knew JavaScript could be bad but never looked into it much. I may make that my next endeavor.

You are already 90% there from normie perspective... Unless your concern is a state threat actor, like my fed Joe.
Jshelter is also useful but it breaks a lot of web outright.
Cheers!

Yeah. I'm trying to compromise based on "threat level" but I'm also happy to try a way to f*** over the data tracking/profiling anyway I can. Lol

uBlock 3rd-party frames & scripts blocked. Same effect but with predefined lists.

I've got a 2021 Kindle Fire HD 10 tablet and I'm sick of Amazon's crap. I mostly use it for watching YouTube, any recommendations for a ~$150 (non-Samsung) tablet the same size or bigger with a headphone jack? Willing to buy used.

See if there's a jailbreak or root available.

There's not, it's too new. There's some stuff Fire toolkit could do but it's severely limited on newer Fire tablets.
