Matomo is blocked by many ad blockers by default, not based on the domain name or URL but based on the name of the js files downloaded by the browser.

  ...and those could be easily avoided by referencing "js/" instead of "piwik.js"[0], or by running Matomo's log analytics tool[1]. Which leads back to the following quote from the author: > But what happens if we block alternatives even if those alternatives are taking the privacy of the user very serious. I care about the privacy of the individual. I don't collect any personal information (I don't even store IP's). Even if you have your Do Not Track-setting turned on in the browser I do not collect any information (see our script).
