On peut bien se figurer
un abruti, non ?
Hors discipline artistique
un abruti
on en retient tous quelques exemplaires
vivants
de leur vie meublée massif
on se le figure tel qu’en lui : direct et
pas méchant le fils
à sa mère juste pas
curieux d’alchimies flexibles
on le voit
on lui colle
un milieu
une misère
un pantalon
un képi
une arme
et pan
il tire aussi sec
et malchance tue
par accident
un arabe

[alors que non il
est pas rac
pas spécialement rac
pas spécialement plus rac
-iste que le reste]

[ et alors ? Rien le temps
suspend son
soleil flexible
annule
le jugement ]

Faszinierend war – auch für Leute wie mich, die die Geschichte schon kennen – @nohillside s Auflistung der Zusammenhänge zwischen diesen #Cookies, Googles mehrfache Abhängigkeit vom Werbemarkt, den Bemühungen um #Google-Abspaltungen, sowie den Entwicklungen rund um die #KI-Firmen.

🔍 INSIDER BUY ALERT: Falcon Minerals $FLOC
📊 Paul W. Hobby, Director, purchased 10,000 shares at $24.17 per share, investing $241,700 on March 19, 2025.
This is way too confusing for me. Why do we need another publicly traded oil and gas supplier?

I feel like there are 2 #FLoC relatives that are not being discussed as much as floc:
1. Privacy Preserving Attribution (this is from Mozilla and is more popular to talk about than the second option).
2. The TOPICS API (This is from patcg, a group also helping Mozilla on Privacy Preserving Attribution. Also, The FLoC GitHub Page links directly to github.com/patcg-individual-dr )

# I think that contextual ads are better in every sense and personalized ads are not privacy-friendly in any way addressed.

@oblomov My initial gut reaction was the same. And I still think it may be wise to opt out of this experiment until it is better understood.

But what if this initiative could indeed serve as a privacy-preserving replacement for #tracking? It looks better than all the terrible ideas Google came up with to replace cookies (#FLoC #PrivacySandbox #TopicsAPI) let alone #browserFingerprinting.

Here is my take on Mozilla's #privacyPreservingAttribution aka #privateAttribution: suma-ev.social/@christian/1127

#DataPrivacyWeek Day 5

Since #privacy online became a broader concern, #BigTech companies now attempt to appear privacy-oriented while just changing the way they spy on their users.

Such is the case with #Google disabling third-party cookies in #Chrome and developing technologies such as #FLoC or #Topics, both of which we've opposed from the very beginning.

Yes, our browser is based on #Chromium, but we do a lot of modifications to the code and take special measures to always protect our users and their privacy.

@dangillmor Coincidentally, I just noticed that, on Linux at least, the chrome-sandbox binary is installed setUID root. This appears to be related to Google’s forthcoming cookie-less tracking but WTF is it doing?
Flipping the s bit off doesn’t cause any immediately obvious problem.

And Google has abandoned #WebEnvironmentIntegrity. Yay! The End!

Mm... No! Google has 'heard your feedback' and has instead created 'WebView Media Integrity API' that is 'narrowly scoped' and 'only targets' #AndroidWebView.

Think about it - now they don't have to listen to anyone's 'feedback'. And if you think the scope is going to remain narrow, boy! I have news for you! #FLoC/Topics anyone? Fool me once - shame on you! Fool me twice...

We'd opposed #Google's 'dangerous' Web integrity API proposal. Now they are backing off!

This is massively positive for the neutrality of the open Web. Though Google is so heavily driven by its interests rather than the benefit of the Web in general, it remains to be seen (and we strongly suspect it won’t take long) what they choose to replace it with.
Are they, for example, preparing a seemingly less obnoxious spec that is actually just as harmful to users (as they did with #FLOC & #Topics)?
It is highly suspicious that it coincides with their recent announcement to move from pay-per-click to pay-per-impression for ads.
Generally, Google hasn’t shown itself to be a trustworthy custodian of the web & we can’t let this apparent victory lure us into resting on our laurels.
A strong diversity of browsers & browser engines is going to be crucial to counteract any future attempt by a single party to dictate the future of the web.

How To Turn Off Google’s “Privacy Sandbox” Ad Tracking—and Why You Should eff.org/deeplinks/2023/09/how-

If you use Chrome, you can disable this feature through a series of three confusing settings.

#Chrome s new update also includes “Privacy Sandbox,” rather controversial new #privacy #killer.

@arstechnica:
"Don’t let Chrome’s big redesign distract you from fact Chrome’s #invasive new ad platform, ridiculously branded #PrivacySandbox is also getting widespread rollout in Chrome today. (It) will track web pages you visit and generate list of advertising topics it will share with sites, and built directly into the Chrome browser. In news previously as #FLoC and #TopicsAPI

2023-09-11

The history of #BOINC and distributed computing looks so much like the history of the #internet. It started out as a novel idea for collaboration and sharing of resources. And for a time, it was good.

Then people went and monitized it. The changes to #Google #Chrome with #FLoC / #topicsAPI are just the same progression.

#Google #AdTracking #Privacy #DataProtection #FLoC #Cookies: "Don't let Chrome's big redesign distract you from the fact that Chrome's invasive new ad platform, ridiculously branded the "Privacy Sandbox," is also getting a widespread rollout in Chrome today. If you haven't been following this, this feature will track the web pages you visit and generate a list of advertising topics that it will share with web pages whenever they ask, and it's built directly into the Chrome browser. It's been in the news previously as "FLoC" and then the "Topics API," and despite widespread opposition from just about every non-advertiser in the world, Google owns Chrome and is one of the world's biggest advertising companies, so this is being railroaded into the production builds.

Google seemingly knows this won't be popular. Unlike the glitzy front-page Google blog post that the redesign got, the big ad platform launch announcement is tucked away on the privacysandbox.com page. The blog post says the ad platform is hitting "general availability" today, meaning it has rolled out to most Chrome users. This has been a long time coming, with the APIs rolling out about a month ago and a million incremental steps in the beta and dev builds, but now the deed is finally done."
