As mentioned in my comment, I'm aware that tracking protection uses a domain block list. (I edited it about a minute after posting to make that more clear.) I did do some research, I just didn't link to it because the comment was getting too long. I don't think a basic technical understanding is good enough to know how it plays out in practice. Computers are complicated, humans are complicated, organizations are complicated, and I've seen many cases where people jump to unfair conclusions because they oversimplified a situation. I think that hearing from people with experience (e.g. people who have worked at a company like CBS or people who worked on Firefox's tracking protection feature or something similar) is much more likely to lead to an accurate understanding of the situation than trying to work off of assumptions.
