What honestly blew my mind was the whole Cookies debate.
- EU introduces law, making thirdparty tracking cookies illegal
- Every advertisement tracker switches to CNAME based first/secondparty cookies
- EU judges decide they are illegal by default, too, without explicit consent
- Google pushes out Federal Learning of Cohorts (FLoC) prototype, and essentially saying they track so much of the internet, they don't even need cookies to get beyond 98% accuracy.
- Nobody on the internet seems to care. Wtf?
- Hnrobert42 1y agoI'm not sure that's right. I thought it was: - Google pushed out FLOC. - The Internet freaked out. - Google withdrew FLOC.
- cookiengineer 1y agoOnce in a while you should run a host firewall and look at the data that Google Safebrowsing receives. Thinking Google backs off easily given their history is a pretty naive take on how the world works.
- Hnrobert42 1y agoI do run a host firewall.
