To address each of your points:

1. I do have an ad blocker installed, but it's not very aggressive.

2. All scripts are enabled. I already have trouble with some sites due to my fairly lax ad blocker.

3. I do not use a VPN (since it just transfers who is able to see my traffic from one party to another). Additionally, virtually every service provider penalizes VPN IPs to the point where it's probably not worth the hassle.

4. Not sure what you mean by "stores tracking Cookies".

I do not agree with that (mostly because of point 3). The reality is that VPN traffic is significantly more "spammy"/bot-filled than non-VPN traffic. It's a perfectly rational and justifiable way to protect sites (albeit ReCAPTCHA is of dubious effectiveness).

I will not arguing against protecting ones website from bots, nor am I saying, that VPN traffic is not spammy in practice. Up until that point I am with you. However, making use of ReCaptcha is certainly not an ethical and therefore not a justifiable way of doing it.

Doing all of the stated things these days has become a minimum for protecting your privacy online. The current situation is a quite bad for privacy conscious people. Even if we only trust first party scripts and do not allow them being loaded from a subdomain, which actually has all the third party scripts again, we still face issues, for example fingerprinting.

I can only laud websites, which can be used completely without third party scripts or perhaps even without scripts at all, making sure it all works with REST, offering alternatives, when scripts are blocked.

It's good to see some "competition" in this area, even, if I do not trust cloudflare either. More competition means less Google monopoly. Hopefully in the long run it will lead to better solutions for casual users.
