Seeing the name "Privacy Sandbox", you might think it would be a ground-up creation aimed at mitigating all of the gratuitous security vulnerabilities that Doubleclick has pushed into the web ecosystem - with deterministic rendering and a fixed lists of system fonts to fix the canvas vulns, permissions checks returning immediate 'no' instead of hanging on asking the user, permissions gating things that can likely never be secured (webgl), and so on with every vulnerability that leads to browser fingerprinting. But no, it's an Orwellian term meant to market something that deliberately violates user trust by leaking even more information!
