According to Tartarus' captcha privacy policy there is an option for the service user to allow Tartarus to provide device data to Spur Monocle. Does KF allow this? I already use a no-logs VPN and fingerprint resistant browser but simply don't know if my device can still be identified. I can only say that the captcha fails if I change my browser's security level from "Standard" to "Safer".

Device Intelligence (where enabled by Service User)


Some Service Users may enable enhanced device analysis through a third-party service called Spur Monocle. When enabled, a script runs in your browser that collects information about your device and network configuration. This information is encrypted in your browser and sent to Spur Intelligence, Inc. for analysis. The analysis determines whether your connection exhibits characteristics of a VPN, proxy, or other anonymizing service. USIPS receives only the result of this analysis, not the underlying device data. See the "Third-Party Services" section below for more information.

I'm confused by all this. Aren't 1776, Lolcow LLC, KiwiFarms, USIPS, Tartarus, etc. Just a bunch of orgs/products that are all just technically Null?
I think Lolcow LLC is just Null (and Kiwi Farms is a website of Lolcow LLC). Tartarus is a product of the USIPS, and the USIPS has a board of directors, so it doesn't seem to just be Null.
1776 I'm not too sure about since I wasn't around when it was a thing
