I see. I was talking about the fact that the cookies are visible to the ad/tracking company.
In my opinion (and I think this is common) ad/tracking companies are third parties and when a company proxy data to one of them it is then by definition residing with a third party ev3n if they don't share it with their other customers.
- iso947 7y agoAn advertising company knows I travelled to wikivoyage and spent lots of time reading about Thailand. They then know that I (same cookie) visited cnn and read about Ebola They then know I visited a cycle magazine and read about a new bike. With proxying they wouldn’t be able to link those three visits together (with cookie data) When I visit a fourth site, it’s a brand new visit - there is no way for the advertising. Company to know I’m the same version who visited the previous sites.
