Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Every single one of those temporary IP addresses has the same prefix, which traces back to you.
Its about as anonymous as adding an apartment number to your own street address.
Yes and no. The deal is your last part is your MAC. So when your extension changes they can still track you over any ipv6 connection. The privacy extension changes the last bit so you can't be tracked over any connection.
the whole point of privacy extensions is that it replaces the MAC with a random something. the address is totally unrelated to the MAC
That assumes that the prefix is static which it isn't. It also assumes that you are the only one with that prefix which isn't necessarily the case. It makes it much harder to track compared to a static IP that is tied to your device.
If you are the only one using a static prefix then it is less useful but chances are that prefix is shared among lots of users and devices.
