Why downvotes?

I didn’t downvote. I will tell you the site will not open with JShelter enabled. With that off there is a no opt-out cookie banner and the site uses Googletagmanager.

So it doesn’t seem at all privacy friendly.

ETA: I looked at it again in a Chromium browser and my firewall logs are a mess, I stopped counting at 20 different blocklists. Ads, tracking, privacy, it hits all of them. Avoid.

And the no opt-out should be illegal where I live.

https://ipx.ac/run and https://www.deviceinfo.me/ seems to give much the same info with none of the google or cookie stuff

Had not heard of JShelter before, thanks.

One good thing that came from this post is I learned about Jshelter and have decided to give it a go.
