    The absurd thing is how it’s all tied to one place. Maybe it’s IP, hardware ID, I wouldn’t know. It’s just absurd how they tie it all together so efficiently and so quickly.

      I think browser fingerprinting is the new hotness. They like that because all it requires is JavaScript, is independent of easily hideable things like IP, and is extremely hard to combat as long as JS is enabled, which you can further ‘encourage’ by making it a shitty single-page web app that requires JS to even render.
