Consider adding Highwebmedia as fingerprinter #193

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

You can find it for example on the chaturbate.com and other websites as well. It has been identified as fingerprinter by Privacy Possum ( https://github.com/cowlicks/privacypossum )

Due to the nature of the website in question, I am not posting a picture this time. You don`t need to take my word on this, you can download the extension and see for yourselve. This is the script https://ssl-ccstatic.highwebmedia.com/CACHE/js/output.92c98302d256.js

I attach data from DuckDuckGo tracker radar ( https://github.com/duckduckgo/tracker-radar ) which shows the excessive amount of APIs it uses so as to confirm that Highwebmedia is indeed a fingerprinter tracker

Easyprivacy also has it in its list ( https://github.com/easylist/easylist/blob/master/easyprivacy/easyprivacy_thirdparty.txt )
