Consider adding vidazoo as fingerprinter #198

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

This tracker ( https://static.vidazoo.com/basev/1.0.398/sbt.js) performs fingerprinting. Detected by DuckDuckGo and Privacy Possum. Blocked by EasyList and AdGuard. You can find on many website, but one example is macworld ( https://www.macworld.com/article/3564788/the-new-york-times-dumps-apple-news-says-contained-model-isnt-healthy.html ) This tracker comes in the form of ads via video player but it also performs fingerprinting, so I think it should be blocked regardless of being a video/ad tool

Given that this domain is hard to block by tools like Disconnect and also because this is handled by ad blocker, I am going to close this issue. Feel free to reopen it if you like
