Usable or Revealing information?
Balancing privacy and usability is a key challenge for any privacy tool.
User experience is critical: if privacy tools are too restrictive, users may disable them or seek alternatives.
Settings should allow users to fine-tune their privacy level without overwhelming them with complexity.
Tip: Start with recommended defaults, then adjust as you learn what works best for your browsing habits.
The goal is to provide strong privacy protection while maintaining a seamless and enjoyable browsing experience.
Security and usability are opposing requirements, when you increase one you are likely negatively impacting the other. That requires a balanced approach. Example: You are buying a train ticket. It is normal to expect departure time to be relevant to your time. Your timezone defines your location within world 24 timezones. Still time zone is required if we are dealing with time of events. Time zone uniqueness is not high for densely populated areas, but can be extremely high for some islands in the middle of the ocean.
Nonetheless, it needs to be provided if the site is dealing with timetables, i.e. on as needed basis. CloakID is training models to help us make those decision as you are browsing.
