  • Do Not Track a Nokia Browser Look
    Do Not Track Nokia Browser Position - Vikram Malaiya Copyright: Nokia Corporation, 2011 Our understanding of Do Not Track (DNT) • DNT is a technology to enables users to opt out of third-party web tracking • No agreed upon definition of DNT. There are currently 3 major technology proposals for responding to third-party privacy concern. 1. Stanford University and Mozilla’s DNT HTTP Header technique. 2. Blacklist based technique such as Microsoft’s ‘Tracking Protection’ which is part of IE9 3. Network Advertising Initiative’s model of a per company opt-out cookie. Opt-out cookie approach is being promoted by Google. DNT as HTTP Header The Browser adds ‘DNT’/ ‘X-Do-Not-Track’ to its http header. The header is sent out to the server with every web request. This header acts as a signal to the server suggesting that the user wishes to opt out of tracking. Adoption: Firefox 4, IE9 DNT as HTTP Header • Pros: – Scope: Server could apply restrictions to all third party entities and tracking mechanisms – Persistent: No reconfiguration needed once set – Simple: Easy to implement on the browser side • Cons: – Only work as long as the server honors users preferences – No way to enforce national regulations/legislations to servers located beyond country boundaries Block(Black) List / Tracking Protection This is a consumer opt-in mechanism which blocks web connections from known tracking domains that are compiled on a list. First party Third party Adoption: ‘Tracking Protection’ in Internet Explorer 9 cy.analytix.com The downloadable Tracking allow Protection Lists enable IE9 xy.ads.com consumers to control what deny third-party site content can deny track them when they’re ads.tracker.com Tracking Protection online.

  • Practical Initialization Race Detection for Javascript Web Applications
    Practical Initialization Race Detection for JavaScript Web Applications CHRISTOFFER QUIST ADAMSEN, Aarhus University, Denmark 66 ANDERS MØLLER, Aarhus University, Denmark FRANK TIP, Northeastern University, USA Event races are a common source of subtle errors in JavaScript web applications. Several automated tools for detecting event races have been developed, but experiments show that their accuracy is generally quite low. We present a new approach that focuses on three categories of event race errors that often appear during the initialization phase of web applications: form-input-overwritten errors, late-event-handler-registration errors, and access-before-definition errors. The approach is based on a dynamic analysis that uses a combination of adverse and approximate execution. Among the strengths of the approach are that it does not require browser modifications, expensive model checking, or static analysis. In an evaluation on 100 widely used websites, our tool InitRacer reports 1 085 initialization races, while providing informative explanations of their causes and effects. A manual study of 218 of these reports shows that 111 of them lead to uncaught exceptions and at least 47 indicate errors that affect the functionality of the websites.

  • Statement of Justin Brookman Director, Consumer Privacy Center for Democracy & Technology Before the U.S. Senate Committee O
    Statement of Justin Brookman Director, Consumer Privacy Center for Democracy & Technology Before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation Hearing on “A Status Update on the Development of Voluntary Do-Not-Track Standards” April 24, 2013 Chairman Rockefeller, Ranking Member Thune, and Members of the Committee: On behalf of the Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT), I thank you for the opportunity to testify today. We applaud the leadership the Chairman has demonstrated in examining the challenges in developing a consensus Do Not Track standard and appreciate the opportunity to address the continued insufficiency of self-regulatory consumer privacy protections. CDT is a non-profit, public interest organization dedicated to preserving and promoting openness, innovation, and freedom on the decentralized Internet. I currently serve as the Director of CDT’s Consumer Privacy Project. I am also an active participant in the Worldwide Web Consortium’s Tracking Protection Working Group, where I serve as editor of the “Tracking Compliance and Scope” specification — the document that purports to define what Do Not Track should mean. My testimony today will briefly describe the history of online behavioral advertising and the genesis of the Do Not Track initiative. I will then describe the current state of the World Wide Web Consortium’s efforts to create Do Not Track standards and the challenges going forward to implement Do Not Track tools successfully. I will conclude with my thoughts on the future of Do Not Track. and why I believe that this protracted struggle demonstrates the need for the fundamental reform of our nation’s privacy protection framework for commercial and government collection and use of personal information.

  • Document Object Model
    Document Object Model CITS3403: Agile Web Development Semester 1, 2021 Introduction • We’ve seen JavaScript core – provides a general scripting language – but why is it so useful for the web? • Client-side JavaScript adds collection of objects, methods and properties that allow scripts to interact with HTML documents dynamic documents client-side programming • This is done by bindings to the Document Object Model (DOM) – “The Document Object Model is a platform- and language-neutral interface that will allow programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the content, structure and style of documents.” – “The document can be further processed and the results of that processing can be incorporated back into the presented page.” • DOM specifications describe an abstract model of a document – API between HTML document and program – Interfaces describe methods and properties – Different languages will bind the interfaces to specific implementations – Data are represented as properties and operations as methods • https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_htmldom.asp The DOM Tree • DOM API describes a tree structure – reflects the hierarchy in the XTML document – example... <html xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title> A simple document </title> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <th>Breakfast</th> <td>0</td> <td>1</td> </tr> <tr> <th>Lunch</th> <td>1</td> <td>0</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Execution Environment • The DOM tree also includes nodes for the execution environment in a browser • Window object represents the window displaying a document – All properties are visible to all scripts – Global variables are properties of the Window object • Document object represents the HTML document displayed – Accessed through document property of Window – Property arrays for forms, links, images, anchors, … • The Browser Object Model is sometimes used to refer to bindings to the browser, not specific to the current page (document) being rendered.
