Detecting visited links by using redraw timing

• robocat 12y ago
  Detected visited links in Chrome on Android (I don't have laptop with me at moment). Looks like it works for Chrome and IE. See files here: http://dev.jigawatt.co.uk/dev/linkvisit/ http://dev.jigawatt.co.uk/dev/linkvisit/

  Very clever and quite accurate once I bumped up the link count. Running Chrome on Win7.

  Looks like it's known and was marked as "won't fix", but it seems like a major privacy vulnerability to me. https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=252165 https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=252165
