Gregory's Server@dale @psvensson Dial down on the tracking protection so that they would actually show up in the stats that fuel the market share discussion?

 @slightlyoff @dale @psvensson Would love for there to be a standardized way to collect privacy respecting telemetry from web pages (in a non-js way)  @voxpelli ha, I wonder if you can CSP ban a non-existent url (https://nope.nope or something) with Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only and then in CSS do *:hover { background-image: url(https://nope.nope); } to get a URL ping any time anybody mouses over anything :) @sil Would that report actual user-agent and not just the frozen user-agent string? 😅 @slightlyoff @dale @psvensson I tried getting eg a big multinational store to correlate their server stats with their GA stats to figure out eg how many Firefox browsers were missing They themselves had only then discovered that iPad no longer reports as iPad… Yes, I've always felt that the user is never part of the conversation. So it might not always be pure evil on the company's part, the reason that no one wants to sit in their tub anymore is the lack of actual water in it. But there are no channels for the user to easily give feedback on this, so the bad practice goes on with infinite positive feedback. |
@voxpelli @dale @psvensson This is a big one. I'm not sure you even need to "dial down tracking protection", but it should be possible to have a conversation w/ folks like GA to report out of band in an anonymized way.
