Iran signed a treaty that let them have a nuclear program but with rules. Iran didn't follow the rules so they got in trouble. New president comes in and agrees to follow rules if it means they won't be in so much trouble anymore

If that's true, it's insane that it worked. It should be obvious to not take orders from twitter. There's a chain of command for a reason and random people on social media are no part of it. Sounds like the opposition forces

Weird. A spike in blood pressure maybe? Can you do reproduce it consistently on purpose with an alarm or by holding something as you fall asleep that will make a loud noise when it falls?

Hopefully, but it's good to have it disabled as well so that your system isn't screwed by the next zero day and to help cover you in case the fingerprinters manage to find a technique to get identifying data from WebGPU that your

True, but randomizing other data points will keep your fingerprint unique which should help prevent associating your activity across sites/sessions.

I'm with you. WebGPU has been used to compromise and fingerprint systems. Firefox (and related forks) are usually able to disable this kind of insecure fluff but it'd be nice if other browsers did as well.

If those "variety of services" are worth anything they should remain popular. There are countless ways to advertise them to people. I'm guessing many devs who were regularly browsing their documentation had ad blockers anyway

Maybe? If they aren't we should change our laws so that they would be. We don't have to normalize or accept companies wiretapping and spying on people just because spying makes those companies more profit.
