    Well, in the least consumer friendly fashion given this court.

      I feel like they are targeting big tech here.

    Depending on how they rule, this could set us back about a couple of decades!!! :-(

    Interesting case. If the plaintiff wins, I suspect this will mean that sites with videos won’t be able to use third-party analytics scripts (not just Meta pixel, but also things like Google Analytics), which would be a pretty large change for the industry.

    I’d love to see first-party tracking become more popular again. I self-host Plausible for my sites, but I’ve considered switching to Swetrix.

    That’s a lot of words to say “this area needs reform”
