    yeah I agree data's just a piece of the puzzle and in the end it's all about your threat model and what your goals are I mean if you're just trying to keep micros off the radar maybe anti-fingerprinting makes sense but if you're after serious UGC and creator engagement that stuff's just noise anyway
