Chrome FLEDGE is here, whether you like it or not

After the failure of the Chrome's monitoring system called flock, Google's latest attempt to replace the third-party cookie (Chrome is the only program which still supports them) is FLEDGE.

The company the was released in the Canary channel allowing users and privacy advocates to search deeper.

Αυτή η πρόσφατη έκδοση δείχνει ότι η Google βλέπει την παρακολούθηση χρηστών σαν ένα υποχρεωτικό μέρος της χρήσης του διαδικτύου, και με ένα εντυπωσιακό όνομα "Privacy Sandbox" προσπαθεί να μας πλασάρει την σύνδεση ενός νέου API απευθείας με το πρόγραμμα περιήγησης. Θα υπάρχει όμως tightness, according to the name and that should make us happy.

The new API will allow the browser to record what it thinks we are interested in. However, the main point to note here is that the database will be created using our computer CPU.

At this time, it is possible to disable the feature from the browser, but in the future there may be no exception.

Να αναφέρουμε ότι προς το παρόν, δεν φαίνεται να υπάρχει κάποιος τρόπος να απενεργοποιηθεί πλήρως το υποκείμενο API. Ένας ιστότοπος που αναμένει αυτό το API θα πετυχαίνει πάντα "κάποιο είδος ανταπόκρισης" εφόσον χρησιμοποιείτε τον Chrome.

The answer Chrome will send to the site may be that you are not interested in anything, but it is an answer nonetheless.

82% of Google's empire relies on ad revenue, and this latest development in Chrome shows that Google doesn't want to make any which will threaten the main mode of financing.

Google continues to argue that it's mandatory to set up a user tracking and advertising system in Chrome, and says it will not block third-party cookies until it succeeds.

The result, if you can call it that, of the FLEDGE API versus FLOC, is that abusing the FLEDGE seems to yield less valuable results. And trying to use the API just to select a single user via fingerprinting or other methods used seems to be rather difficult to accomplish. Of course, time will tell if this remains the case or if Google is just trying to optimize this new API.

Regarding the schedule:

"Από σήμερα, οι προγραμματιστές μπορούν να αρχίσουν να δοκιμάζουν παγκοσμίως τα Topics, FLEDGE, and Attribution Reporting APIs στην έκδοση Canary του Chrome. Θα προχωρήσουμε σε ένα περιορισμένο αριθμό χρηστών στον Chrome Beta το συντομότερο δυνατό. Μόλις τα πράγματα λειτουργήσουν ομαλά στην Beta, θα διαθέσουμε τη δοκιμή API στη σταθερή έκδοση του Chrome για να επεκτείνουμε τη δοκιμή σε περισσότερους χρήστες του Chrome."
