New Study Shows #Google #Tracking Persists Even With #Privacy Tools
While privacy-focused search engines like #DuckDuckGo can reduce exposure, completely escaping Google’s reach remains a significant challenge. Study simulated locations using VPN to ensure accurate regional data collection.
The findings reveal Google’s tracking extends far beyond its own products, embedded deeply within countless websites through tools like #GoogleAnalytics, #AdSense, and #YouTube embeds. https://hackread.com/new-study-google-tracking-persists-privacy-tools/

Receiving #GoogleAnalytics marketing mail will never cease to be hilarious.

Yliopiston Apteekki fined over 1 M€ by the #privacy authority of #Finland for using #GoogleAnalytics and #Facebook trackers on its website. Looks like they switched to #Piwik now.

(This is perhaps the largest online and physical retail pharmacy in the country, with over 250 M€/y in revenues.)

This report about #Wacom graphics tablets is disturbing for a couple of reasons.

1. They are surveilling users of their #tablet - a human-interface device analogous to a mouse or trackball - recording every application you open, or when you switch between windows of different applications. They are collecting this data via a trip through Google Analytics, aka Spyware Central. There is no possible way to justify collection of this particular data; it is none of their damn business how long you have your drawing program focused before switching to your browser and back again. The author notes their privacy policy really doesn't describe this collection of data correctly, so there really can't be informed consent in the first place.

2. Why on earth is it possible in #Apple #OSX / #MacOS for a USB human interface device driver to capture this information in the first place? Apple shares a big slice of the blame here - this should just simply not be possible for the driver to collect in the first place. Having such a driver allowed to place outgoing HTTP requests is also a big "WTF are they thinking?" moment.

Warum genau muss ein Bistum oder eine Kirchgemeinde ihre Seite mit Google-Analytics-Bullshit vollstopfen?!

Weil all die Google-SchülerInnen, welche ohne Google heute keine Homepages mehr gestalten können, glauben, dass das heute dazugehört.

Schwachsinn! Die Analyse von Seiten bringt nur Google etwas.

Auf meiner Website läuft ohne meine Wissen Google Analytics.

Eigentlich muss ich es doch aktiviert haben, aber ich kann mich daran nicht erinnern und wüsste nicht warum. Einen Google Account habe ich nicht. Da ich die Seite über 10 Jahre habe, kann ich aber auch nicht ausschließen, dass ich mal was probiert habe, warum auch immer.

Kann es am Seitenbetreiber liegen?

Wie kriege ich es entfernt?

Ich habe dazu bereits gesucht und Tips gefunden. Aber den HTML Code entfernen lässt mein Account wohl nicht zu.
