Your comment was making sense until you started comparing a council website with a marketing product (Brave.com).

- MrAlex94 7y agoIt doesn't invalidate what I've found though? Also Brave themselves market as being privacy friendly, blocking ads and trackers etc... is it not fair to judge them as well if they are reporting this as egregious?
- grsmto 7y agoNo it's not fair because what they report as egregious is not the tracking themselves but the context! Council websites are public services. And it says in the report "citizens are entitled to expect that public services do not allow private companies to surveil them on their websites.". Other than that, you are right that it's hard to find what's wrong with that Lambeth website. However the GTM could be a gateway to any kind of data tracking (visited pages, button clicked, etc.) idk if you can actually find out from the console.
