@Clock

Repeat playing that chess board, potentially sends a lot of pixel info that can be used as an identifier - that is useful for trackers?

Its unlikely its “blocking more” we’re blocking the requests, Privacy Badger is just not stopping the constant tracking requests`, so why its a higher number
