I agree and this is exactly my point. It will be chaos worse than anything we ever seen. People just don’t realize how dependent everything is on internet now.
All i can say good luck. If you turn off the internet nothing will work and shit will hit the fan for the gov too fast.
This is also a good and better idea, thank you for pointing that out.
I believe that firefox is one if the few who has at least some sort of protection against it. But you should always use different browser profiles for anything you do online at least on computer and especially if you use vpn.
If google is doing this, they have a much better way to track them. Maybe fingerprints or something called evercookies. Which is harder to protect against.
The good thing is there are some software and browsers who are tackling this issues.

You can avoid a lot of spam by using blacklists of ips. See spamhouse blacklists for example. Also log all users ips who contact you in case you need to block them for spamming.
After reading this article, I predict Firefox AI software ChatGPT feature built into Firefox in the future. This can be very useful if done right. Just hope there is an OFF switch for anyone who doesn’t want to use it.
