I tried to visit the Noonies site in privacy mode, and they replied "Why are you hiding? It looks like you're browsing privately/icognito. This app is best viewed from a normal browser window."

Before I opened up in a tracking window, I had a look at their privacy policy. They collect a lot of stuff.

Yet the first line is "Your privacy is important to us". But my privacy is quite obviously not important to them since I can't even see their site without letting them track me.

Diogenes proved to the later satisfaction of the Stoics that happiness has nothing whatsoever to do with a person’s material circumstances, and held that human beings had much to learn from studying the simplicity and artlessness of dogs, which, unlike human beings, had not complicated every simple gift of the gods.
