Re: Google Chrome pushes browser history-based ad targeting
#163How about a Do-Not-Track alternative where I can specify what kind of ads I'd be OK to show up alongside my browsing? It could be a header with a hash of an entry in a public list of lists of interest. Cars, travel, fashion, whatever; any order or preference you might come up with. I could flip a switch or install a plugin in the browser to help learn from my browsing history locally, and populate that list accordingly.
Adsense needs to respect that header, is all. I'd ditch ad-block if that happened.
Provided ads are alongside my content and don't replace it's space and time.
I'd use that.
EDIT: apparently, the basic idea is there; but also cookies will now only come from the website being viewed, not tracking you across the whole Web.

I have this weird issue with Firefox: any time when is fast forward in a YouTube video it drops my USB-C connections!
Interesting. Is hardware acceleration enabled?
I have disabled it an now it's fine! What is also interesting that this is happening with two different laptops. The Sound Device btw is a USB DAC that is connected through the USB-C hub. Maybe this is what is causing the issues.
This issue is relatively new, what I am experiencing is "reaching" the USB DAC Sound Device is getting slower and slower. Maybe this is a driver issue in Windows.

Many of them think they’re supporting the free and open internet. I can promise you that many ad engineers take privacy very seriously, and from their perspective, google is leading the charge on less invasive Display ad tech. I seriously doubt the people in this thread will agree with any of that, but I thought I’d answer the question. Of course, the money helps too - Google just recently laid off thousands of worke…
> from their perspective, google is leading the charge on less invasive Display ad tech That would require levels of cognitive dissonance rarely seen outside fraudulent politicians. But that's phrasing it sarcastically, something best avoided in conversations. Bluntly put: indeed, I don't believe you. You cannot work for Google/Alphabet, where 80% of revenue ($183 billion in 2020!) comes from ads, and believe you're…
Google makes money from ads so therefor they can’t be leading the charge on less invasive ad tech…? They want less invasive ad tech, trust me. Regulatory capture only goes so far, and they know that well. Google is doing WAY more for “the next generation of display ads” than any other company. And I promise I’m not lying :)
All of this is kinda silly, in the end: display ads are negligible when compared to their INSANE search ads revenue, and something tells me they’re not long for this world

https://pinboard.in is my go-to for this sort of thing.
Didn’t something happen to that guy, or the site went down? Or was that something else. The one i linked is self hosted, but a Saas version definitely is interesting. Does your one have archiving and search??
The site has been solid for me for years and it does have content archiving and search.
Not sure of which site issue you're talking about.
