I read an article in Compouteractive magazine re stopping companies following yoiu around the web.
Now every time I open EBay I have to log in, receive a passcode etc tick I trust my browser,m then afterwards I get an email that I added a trusted browser.
I have to go through this every day similar with paypal and Amazon.
@woldsweather I’m assuming you changed some settings after reading the article you mentioned. Could you share some of these changes? The root of your problem is likely there.
If you are clearing or blocking cookies, this would happen. When you sign in, websites usually place a cookie in your browser to recognize you when you return. This issue can also occur if you’re using a VPN, which makes it appear that you’re connecting from a different location.
We need to identify what you changed that’s preventing websites from recognizing you. It’s likely related to cookies or your IP address, but there could be other factors. For example, some extensions might send a different user agent code, making the website think you’re using a different browser (e.g., Firefox or Chrome instead of Brave).
Could you provide more details about the changes you made? This will help us pinpoint the issue and find a solution.
