I saw this on infinity for Reddit earlier, I don't know if there's a workaround for this or not.
You're viewing a single thread.
They talk as if they're protecting our privacy when it's really a global surveillance net. The spin doctoring is insane.
"Privacy Sandbox" is just Google-controlled surveillance carried out with your phone/PC as the primary data provider. We've reached maximum perversion of the English language.
this sort of gaslighting through corruption of vernacular used to amuse me, but now I feel like the withering wojak face anymore
are you referring to the new “Privacy Sandbox” or the old “Privacy Sandbox”. because if there calling this new thing a “Privacy Sandbox” after the old one lost public attention after they kept promising it for years, I am going to laugh or maybe cry.
what they originally called “Privacy Sandbox”
it was a browser feature to remove the HTTP cookie and replace it with a cohort system. your browser would receve signals about your habbits. that you were buying domino's pizza and announce to upcoming sites that you like pizza, but ya know... in a "safe" way.
I still see, "chrome is going to replace the cookie" and "RIP the humble cookie" every once in a while.
I'm pretty sure the old Privacy Sandbox was called FLoC, wasn't it? This is definitely part of Google's continued efforts to kill the (third-party) cookie in such a way that tracking your user activity will still be possible, but that Google itself will maximally benefit from because they're the ones controlling how it'll get implemented.
And given Google's near-unilateral control of web browsing standards, who will say no? Their biggest partners? Mozilla?
Straight up 1984 Newspeak, where the Ministry of Truth is really concerned with lies, the Ministry of Peace is concerned with war, the Ministry of Love is concerned with torture, and the Ministry of Plenty is concerned with starvation.
It's honestly Doublethink.
Whenever Google gets exposed for bad practices, people ignore it. And they believe this stuff is good or don't care.
Bruh, so when android phones are turned off they'll still waste energy locating people and sharing the location. And most phones don't have a removable battery! Fucking nuts.
