Ip address, browser finger printing, cookies + google analytics is enough to identify who is using what service. They don't need an account to tell who you are because most people surf the web with multiple active sessions on other sites they're logged into and that makes it trivial to know who is doing what.

I think it's because their spaghetti-laden backend code can't survive any additional changes.

Yeah, ok.

The fingerprinting is handled by google analytics.

There is more to it than just google/twitter tracking.

I posted about this before, back when I used to have a reddit account (deleted it shortly after nonewnormal was deleted), plus I had locals gossiping in the local subreddit about how I was paranoid conspiracy theorist lmao. Proably wcb workers trying to paint the picture that I am crazy. Right now my phosphorous is super low, and the fucktards I guess dont realize that paranoid delusions are a symptom of low phosphorous. I dont see how accusing them of working with a Doctor to deny me my claim is a paranoid delusion when I literally have the proof that he was lying. But im a white male, no one gives a fuck lmao.

Since around 2018ish, I believe. I noticed that when browsing reddit without being logged in, on the first session of an incognito mode, would flash a black transparent overlay with a 1x1 dot. Ad's would load up after this as well, so my guess is they are actually logging people in when they visit whether they have an account or not.

I still see it happening to this day, open up a couple tabs of reddit, and then allow javascript to load the shitty code and when you open the second tab there is a good chance you will see this weird "shadow" login is what I call it.

The website is definitely tracking people, and it creeps me how much effort is put in to people installing the app on their phone. Never in a million years would I give them fucktwats any permissions.

It doesn't matter unless you go all secret agent about it. My son got us a 3 day temp ban last year because he has my old phone.

All the dozens of subreddits that banned users on conspiracy made Reddit unusable for him. He doesn't know where he can comment, and tech support said to contact admin. Admin of course said to contact tech support.

To be clear a person not me, not my username, but using my old equipment got us both banned for ban evasion. He's a young adult man, and I'm a woman with an adult child.

They must think we're a scitzo!

Those usernames are forever linked.

You're not wrong, but I've read people posting for others that entire households getting banned under the same WiFi ip. I used to think it was a poor understanding of technology.

These days, I think it's to keep their bubble.
