As I warned about months ago now, I can confirm that Google Chrome's #AI API is now actively being used for device fingerprinting and tracking purposes.

Out of 100 of the top global english language content sites - around 30% are actively using the API for fingerprinting, Google Advertising (profiling) or both) without the legally required consent (EU law).

This is CNN doing it (unlawfully, without consent)...

@thatprivacyguy There isn't a single piece of information that isn't actively being exploited for fingerprinting. Canvas. Browser plugins. Zoom levels. Screen resolutions. Everything.
But banning children from the internet is somehow the answer, instead of locking up these spyware fanatics.

@elricofmelnibone yes I know I have been investigating and fighting these issues for the last 20 years, it’s my job. But this is a new issue which is why I raised it - my full report on Nov 17th covers all the rest as well.

@evert no. That's on purpose from Google. They will actively sabotage anything that cuts into their advertising income.
Short of installing a completely different browser (ex. Firefox) you could try a "plugout," so to speak: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium

@thatprivacyguy @elricofmelnibone Shouldn't Google then be held responsible for any age identification? No need for ID. They know enough about their users and should be held responsible.
