You can't embed material that's loaded from servers that'll strack you, correct.
Which is why many German news sites hide all twitter/facebook embeds and instead show a placeholder. Only once you click "embed content from ..." on that placeholder will the actual embed be loaded.
Plain links on the other hand are fine.
- rezonant 5y agoLinks to other websites aren't the problem. You cant embed material (images, scripts, fonts, video, etc) from any external site at all, because the IP address is always conveyed to that third party because that's how the Internet works. Thus you must host it yourself or not at all. This isn't just about whether you perceive the third party as a scary big tech "tracker" website or not
