This article provides an overview on Mozilla's Anonym advertising technology (Mozilla acquired Anonym a few months ago). Basically, in involves creating a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) in the browser that exports encrypted and anonymized data to the ad platform, which aggregates it and forwards it to the advertiser. What data? Well, that's not exactly clear. And can we turn this off? That would seem to me to be pretty important.
