If you need a backend anyway I like using postgis ST_AsMVT and caching the result. So pretty much running a sql query on the database every time the map is moved and then caching it. Super easy to maintain, don't have to pregenerate anything. Just bust the cache when necessary.

Sure, which is exactly the rationale for disabling it.

It's solely created for advertisers to be able to implement their tracking more reliably. There is almost no way to use it in a way that benefits the user.

Yup, we do. Mind you, I'm not an american. But we often say something like "the americans" or other less flattering terms.

Why accept the result? Send it back and have them deliver something usable.

It's great for SSH from my phone. The connection is just there whenever I unlock my phone.

Developing a cheat does not ruin anyone's fun. The same goes for guns, knives, anything that could be used as a weapon. It's all about how you use a tool, and in this case creating the tool is fun. Unless you think that everyone who fires a gun for fun, or creates a knife or even just a baseball bat, is a murderer?

the workaround is literally just running a headless browser, and that's pretty much the default nowadays.

if you want to save some $$$ you can spend like 30 minutes making a cracker like in the article. just make it multi threaded, add a queue and boom, your scraper nodes can go back to their cheap configuration. or since these are AI orgs we're talking about, write a gpu cracker and laugh as it solves challenges far faster than any user could.

custom solutions aren't worth it for individual sites, but with how widespread anubis is it's become worth it.
