Unrelated to the topic, but damn does The Gaurdian have a long list of vendors they transmit data to or otherwise use for advertising/tracking. On the large blue rectangle, click through to "options", turn everything off, and click the dropdown that is labeled "vendors".
- oliwarner 6y agoNot defending them but our local newspaper has double that list. Rando US news sites have five times that. Most news sites have inordinate numbers of advertising vectors and tracking elements. One assumes it's because it literally pays the bills. Let an external and manager deal with it because it gets "inventory" filled fast. But yes, you'd expect The Guardian to be a little more privacy focussed.
- brailsafe 6y agoI agree, most news sites are awful about it. I don't hold The Guardian to a higher standard, because their reporting is often — but perhaps less so than most — just as questionable.
