Using GOS, is it risky to visit (just view, not sign in) a FB page?

I occasionally have things (businesses, etc.) that have no real website, just a FB page. Using GOS along with a paid vpn, is it a privacy risk to view that FB page, using an incognito Vanadium tab?

I am frustrated when this happens. But I can understand that if the owner of a small business is already part of the FaceBook ecosystem it is fast and easy and (apparently) free to go that route.

This is probably OK? There is one potential leak I am aware of, though I am unaware of a clear and strong demonstration of the exact effects: the Media DRM i.d.

I don't think just doing that alone poses a material privacy risk.

de0u the Media DRM i.d.

Wait, do we know that Media DRM ID is available to websites in Vanadium? I thought it only applies to native apps.

Is it possible to cite a basis for that position?

de0u It's definitely a problem for native apps, I wasn't sure how it is for websites in Vanadium tho.

Vanadium disables protected content in Site Settings by default, so I was hoping Media DRM ID is not leaked to websites by default. I could be wrong tho, would be good to find out.
