Privacy & Freedom in the Information Age www.reddit.com

Was checking out the updates in chrome-unstable: 128.0.6555.2 (2024-6-25). 18 new browser APIs have been added, including:

Navigator.prototype.adAuctionComponents
Navigator.prototype.canLoadAdAuctionFencedFrame
Navigator.prototype.clearOriginJoinedAdInterestGroups
Navigator.prototype.createAuctionNonce
Navigator.prototype.joinAdInterestGroup
Navigator.prototype.leaveAdInterestGroup
Navigator.prototype.protectedAudience
Navigator.prototype.runAdAuction
Navigator.prototype.updateAdInterestGroups

Searching for these APIs led me to this page: https://developers.google.com/privacy-sandbox/relevance/protected-audience

Trust google to spin audience tracking and retargeting with words like "privacy" and "protected". I hope these features will be ripped out of Chromium forks. In the meantime, I'll continue using LibreWolf.
