Generally you'd get a network prefix from your ISP of 56 to 60 bits, your router would handle deciding how to make a network out of the remaining 4 to 8 bits of the network part, and then devices would automatically assign themselves u

Regarding the option of Google ceasing all behavior-based tracking to avoid competition issues: I doubt they could do that to the ad industry unilaterally. Even if they would then be following the same rules themselves, I don't think t

Even if Google did not have the privacy sandbox features, they would still have first-party cookies and enough data from the services they run (Search, YouTube, etc). This puts Google in a different position than what Apple did and means th

They have to set up the replacement (topics API) before they get rid of the previous solution (third-party cookies). Sites need time to adjust and implement the new systems. They also need to not make sweeping changes to the ad industry tha

That's an edge case made specifically to be MITM'd by the network you're on. It's also a pretty good example of what someone with control of the network can do to any non-encrypted connection.

I figured most people looking to do this at home wouldn't have a home MDM solution to deploy it with. You're right though that it could probably be done with Apple Configurator fairly easily.

And would it even be possible to have their web tracking things behave differently between normal and incognito modes? I think we'd all be worse off if sites could detect privacy-related features like that.

Attestation is more like: The passkey is from this model of security key/phone. That can then be used to have a list of allowed devices if you really need hardware backed security for example (eg you provide all your users in your org
