It such a shame that Safari does not support SVG favicons. It's the only major browser which doesn't: https://caniuse.com/link-icon-svg All current browsers support PNG.
Also see the gigantic map - https://iconmap.io The blog post is the analysis of the data set, the map is the visualization.
Is the dataset available for download? I couldn't immediately find a download to the dataset in the linked article. My hands itch to do some dimension reduction on that data and make some nice plots
Writing or reviewing a sentence like this should make you reconsider. Either do the right analysis or remove this from your article. But when you say your analysis is probably wrong and the results look weird, then why publish as is?
Also, we turned up 2,000 domains that redirect to a very shady site called happyfamilymedstore[dot]com. Stuff like avanafill[dot]com, pfzviagra[dot]com, prednisoloneotc[dot]com. These domains made it into the Tranco 100k somehow. Full list here - https://gist.github.com/gurgeous/bcb3e851087763efe4b2f4b992f...

Its such a shame that PNG does not support packing multiple dimensions into one file like .ico formats actually do.
I worked on Opera Link, the first built-in synchronization between different installations of the Opera browser, both desktop, Opera Mini and Opera Mobile (+ a web view). Favicons got included in the data from day one, and it was awesome to get the look and feel of your bookmark bar/UI with the correct icons right away. Back then we stored the booksmarks in a home grown XML data store (built on top of mysql, acting m…
Wait, so you can see user's data directly?
Opera Link did not encrypt bookmarks and speeddials etc, but had datatypes encrypted with master password, even while syncing. We where two people with the access and knowledge to access individual user information, and we took it very serious.

GP is talking about something implemented in 2008. It was a different time and a different mentality.
Firefox Sync seems to have sane/encrypted defaults.[2]

It's not, at least for me. If you checked in devtools, that's gzip over the wire size. Hover over the size and it'll show you the actual resource size, still 285k for me.
I committed a fix, it's now 24k uncompressed! :)

I wonder if there might be a way to map all these using t-SNE to discrete grid locations? Maybe even an autoencoder. I'd love to see what features it could pick out. I don't see their data set though. hmmm. maybe I'll just have to crawl it on my own if I want to do it.
