#62Cool tool, but the language is painfully characteristic of AI. Maybe we are collectively getting over caring about that, but if not, it's worth a pass of "make this sound a little less like AI." E.g., the guide page ends with > The honest bottom line. Perfect anonymity [...]
It's using all the Claude fonts, it's got the Claude pulsing indicators, it's got the Claude cards, and none of the writing is useful. This has gotta be up there with one of the most Claudey Claude sites I've ever seen
Edit: oh my, even the author's comments in this thread are written by Claude...

It's eye-bleedingly Claudeslopped.

Eye-bleeding Claudeslopped is this week’s best expression of AI frustration.

It got facebook pixel wrong. I see zero DNS requests to facebook.com on NextDNS
That panel reconstructs what a pixel would send from your own browser values, locally, and never makes the request. NextDNS seeing nothing is the tool working exactly as designed.
what?

#67Lying AI slop. Says I am unique among 7.2B devices and shows me a different fingerprint every time. Idk how this vibe coded slopware made it to the front page of HN
If it changes every load, that's your browser farbling canvas/audio per-read (Brave or Firefox), which means the anti-fingerprinting is working. We missed crediting that in v1, so it should read lower now if you reload.
then youre straight up lying in your tool. thats not "something we(you+claude) missed".

They're saying that the site simulates what would be sent to Facebook without actually sending the request to Facebook.
(I'm not sure if that's true, but I hope so)
