Original Summary

On November 17th I will publish a research paper into the current state of play for online privacy.<p>In order to conduct the research I carried out forensic audits of 100 of the top english language content websites (no B2B or SaaS - just consumer content sites) monitoring all browser events and capturing payloads.<p>Even though I was not specifically looking for AI API events, the results are quite alarming.<p>Around 30% of the sites audited are using the AI API for either device fingerprinting, profiling (Google Advertising) or both.<p>This is despite Google assuring the world that the API would not create any privacy risks after concerns we raised when they announced their plan to add the API.<p>The rest of the findings are equally shocking and out of the 100 sites audited - every single one of them is in breach of EU law (tort, regulatory and criminal) and almost definitely in breach of various US and other laws across the world.
