You can opt out of Fullstory tracking here > https://www.fullstory.com/optout/

These types of "services" should be opt-in, not opt-out.

Not that it should be necessary, notion should not be violating you're privacy by default, but at least uBlock/uMatrix block the entire fullstory domain by default.

Precisely why I use it. Unfortunately it can't block everything, and it's under heavy attack[1], as we know.

...Christ. DMCA against a plain-text list of domains? What is this, Shadowrun?

In the EU they are by law. In reality not all websites disclose all services they share data with though. And all users click accept in the cookie pop-up anyway.

FullStory is not opt in.

Have you seen those pop ups with a button to consent to cookies and a link to a privacy page where usage of 3rd party services like Fullstory has to be disclosed? That's your opt-in.

It is not opt in if I do not have an option to decline. "By continuing to use our website you agree" is not opt in and isnt GDPR conform.

Does that also opt you out of their apps too? Guessing all this does is set a cookie for that browser.

It sets the following:

{ "Domain": ".fullstory.com", "Name": "fs_optout", "Value": 1, "Path": "/", "Expires": null, "Store ID": "firefox-default", "First Party Domain": null, "Secure": false, "Session": true, "Http Only": false, "Host Only": false }

> "Session": true,

As in: this cookie will stick around as long as your browser is running, but when you close it and start it up again it will be gone?

If it’s like Matomo’s opt-out system, that cookie is required – it’s the very thing that turns on the opt-out.

When you opt-out of Matomo, the message warns that “if you clear your cookies, delete the opt-out cookie, or if you change computers or Web browsers, you will need to perform the opt-out procedure again”.

Matomo also honours the browser’s DNT setting, which is a) nice and b) rare.

Mine has an expires set: 2046-05-31T19:47:10.000Z

Disabling by the browser will take no effect on the app or other browsers.
