"This is a set of techniques that allow sites to remember (or identify) you only for as long as you’re visiting the site," he said. Snyder says Unlinkable Bouncing is Brave's first application of "first-party ephemeral storage," a capability being developed to make websites more forgetful. This prevents the bounce tracking site from re-identifying the visitor when any other website redirects to the bounce tracker. If the URL is found, assuming a suitably strict browser privacy configuration, the browser creates a new temporary storage area for the bounce tracking site and then deletes it, purging any identifiers that were set. When navigating to a new URL, Brave checks its internal and its crowdsourced filter list for known bounce trackers. It's designed to augment Brave's previously implemented bounce tracking defenses, which include warnings prior to visiting bounce tracking sites, stripping query parameters added to URLs to facilitate tracking, and debouncing, a mechanism for suppressing bounce tracking redirects.Įssentially, Unlinkable Bouncing enforces amnesia for bounce tracking sites. Unlinkable Bouncing prevents bounce tracking sites from tracking people over time by linking past website visits to new ones. Facebook is one bad Chrome extension away from another Cambridge Analytica scandal.Apple, Google, Microsoft, Mozilla agree on something: Make web dev lives easier.Facebook exposes 'god mode' token that could siphon data.To curtail privacy intrusions of this sort, Brave software engineer Aleksey Khoroshilov and senior software engineer Ivan Efremov devised a defense called Unlinkable Bouncing. By doing so across multiple different websites, acker can develop a profile of the people's interests. acker then redirects back to the original website URL and acker cookies can then be read in third-party contexts. Doing so puts acker into a first-party context, enabling it to set tracking cookies.
