Start here

If you own a Independent Research television and want the short answer, it is on what you can refuse: for each kind of collection — what you watch, what you say, the adverts you are shown, who it is shared with, where you are — whether Independent Research's own documents say you can decline, say you must accept, or don't say at all. Every answer there quotes the sentence it came from. Everything below this is the evidence behind it.

Capture history

23 versions

Every reading of every Independent Research document on one time axis. Each cell is a period of the axis, lit by the most serious thing a capture found in it; the fine marks inside are the captures themselves, at the moment they happened. A dim cell is a period with no capture. A hatched cell is a page we asked for and were not given. A document that has never returned a readable page has a row with nothing lit: the archive is watching it, and holds nothing yet.

Captures over time

6 documents · every capture so far falls on 2026-09-05; the axis reads in hours, UTC
