Yeah, I do @musllibc, FOSS & infosec stuff. But now is not the time for a mostly-/only-tech Twitter feed.

      My team has been doing this research for six years and I’ve asked myself this question many, many times. Here are my thoughts.https://twitter.com/matthew_d_green/status/946866218962767872 …

      The things websites are doing to track users are totally abusive and messed up. This is great work. But why does it take academic research to uncover this stuff? https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/930803580243550208 …

      First, we do need *some* academic research, because tracking techniques have gotten so tricky that you do need Ph.D.-level smarts (and time commitment) to uncover them. I’ve been fortunate to work with @s_englehardt and many other super smart people.

      But the software that we built for this research, OpenWPM, is open source, and usable by anyone who can program. Many others have used it, but almost all academic researchers. Why? Who are the other entities who could be doing this, and why haven’t they?https://github.com/citp/OpenWPM

      Let’s go through them one by one. 1. Investigative journalists should be doing this work, and some have, most notably @JuliaAngwin and her team. In fact, it was their What They Know series way back in 2010 that inspired me to start researching the topic!http://www.wsj.com/public/page/what-they-know-2010.html …

      But the press could be doing *far* more. Why isn’t that happening? My guess: the financial troubles of journalism combined with inadequate tech expertise.

      2. Civil liberties organizations should be doing this work, because web privacy isn’t just about harms to individuals — it’s about a functioning democracy.https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/877908314222473216 …

      I think the main impediment is again tech expertise. The EFF is the most notable exception. They’ve done good work in this space, especially Privacy Badger, but I’d love to see more from them and for more such org's to hire technologists.https://www.eff.org/privacybadger

      3. Browser vendors should be doing this work, and their absence is conspicuous. Historically they’ve tried to be “neutral” on privacy, which I’ve criticized. This is starting to change (and we also have privacy-focused browsers like Brave).https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/943155973509828608 …

      Great analogy. Web browsers being neutral on third-party tracking is like email providers being neutral on spam. https://twitter.com/dmarti/status/943153833324060673 …

      Browsers shouldn't try to be neutral on privacy because neutrality is an illusion. http://randomwalker.info/publications/webtap-chapter.pdf …pic.twitter.com/Kgytxugoeo

      If sites are abusing tracking features like auto-login form systems, that’s a browser flaw.

      There should never be auto-fill, only click-to-fill. That's how all my mobile browsers work.
