The covert tracking—implemented in the #MetaPixel and #YandexMetrica trackers—allows #Meta and #Yandex to bypass core security and privacy protections provided by both the Android operating system and browsers that run on it.

Verknüpfung von Daten 🔗 Besuchte Webseiten mit #MetaPixel oder #YandexMetrica verbinden Web-Besuche mit App-Accounts – selbst im Inkognito-Modus.
Reaktionen der Unternehmen ⚠️ #Google prüft das Vorgehen, #Meta und #Yandex pausieren die Praxis, während Browser wie #DuckDuckGo und #Brave bereits blockieren.
Schwachstelle bleibt offen 🔓 Experten fordern grundlegende Plattform-Änderungen.

Common privacy techniques such as clearing cookies or using Private Browsing did not protect against this technique.
Browser vendors are working to block this traffic, some have already pushed updates.
I guess anti-tracking filters for ad blockers such as #uBlockOrigin did prevent this (not including the #MetaPixel script or not allowing the #Yandex localhost traffic).
Anybody has any details?

Forget #AmazonBrave. Its a #AmazonCloudFront scam, and #Kagi is on Google-owned servers, their CDN is Amazon, and they want people to pay for that "service" by signing up via Cloudflare, lol.
Even just mentioning these makes us feel dirty.
At this point, Russia's #Yandex is looking like the most ethical choice. You may need to add "lang:en" to your search.
