> I want to make sure that content creators are compensated for their work. Ad firms that employ fingerprinting stand between me and the content creator.
This is false: We're the ones who pay the creator, because:

If that upsets you, please understand it upsets me to, because

I want you to consider a different toothbrush brand, or maybe a hot location for a holiday, and the idea that I am "invading" your privacy in trying to do this is disconcerting.
I understand there are actors who want to use your private personalising data to harm you. I think that is bad, but I am telling you friend, that isn't me.
> I'm not quite sure what the answer is.
Listen, as an insider I am not quite sure what the answer is either, but I'm telling you that content creators need to eat because you have threatened them with capitalism which murders you if you don't participate, and I am the one feeding them and not you.
I think though, it probably takes the form of better laws that prevent people from using personalised data to harm you without public (judicial) review, and I think that is going to require people like you thinking of the outcome that you want, instead of foolishly trying the impossible to conserve your personal privacy.
