Tracking of the Finnish Web Users Tracking of the Finnish Web Users John Bailey Department of Information Systems Science Hanken School of Economics Helsinki 2019 i HANKEN SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS Department of: Type of work: Information Systems Science Master’s Thesis Author and student number: Date: John Bailey 021090 May 6th 2019 Title of thesis: Tracking of the Finnish Web Users Abstract: The development of the World Wide Web has always been a tightrope walk between the commercial needs of companies and the privacy rights of the web users. Understanding the behaviors and preferences of the web users provides the online advertising ecosystem with valuable targeting data. The mechanism facilitating this data collection is called online tracking, with which small snippets of code enable the surveillance of users across the websites they visit. User acceptance of tracking and targeted advertising includes some interesting paradoxes, and global data breaches and misapplications have attracted growing media coverage and public outcry. Online tracking prevalence has been researched from many perspectives, including the longitudinal and geographical, but very little is known about who is tracking and profiling the Finnish web users. As research has shown, there are geographical differences in tracking behavior and prevalence. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to study the online tracking landscape from the perspective of a Finnish web user. This thesis used website ranking service Alexa’s top 500 websites Finnish users most frequently visit as a proxy for Finnish web usage. The sites were observed using the online tracking measurement tool Tracker Tracker, which documented the online trackers found on these websites. The resulting list of trackers was then enriched with organizational ownership data provided by the Disconnect dataset. The measurement found 466 unique trackers from 408 organizations used on 410 of the 500 websites. The core findings of this thesis supported contemporary research, with Google having an overwhelming lead in tracker coverage, mostly through Google Analytics and Doubleclick, reaching a combined 75 % of the websites. The second most prevalent tracking organization was Facebook, reaching 46 % of the websites. Beyond the top 2 organizations, the competition was much tighter, followed by a long tail of organizations. There were also notable differences when comparing Finnish websites to non-Finnish sites, displaying some level of geographical preference in publishers’ choices of advertising platforms and analytical tools. Keywords: online tracking, cookies, tracking prevalence, 3rd party tracking, targeted advertising, privacy, Finnish web users ii SVENSKA HANDELSHÖGSKOLAN Institution: Arbetets art: Informationsbehandling Magistersavhandling Författare och studerandenummer: Datum: John Bailey 021090 6.5.2019 Avhandlingens rubrik: Tracking of the Finnish Web Users Sammandrag: Utvecklingen på webben har alltid varit en svår balansgång mellan företagens kommersiella behov och webbandvändarnas rätt till dataskydd. Goda insikter om användarnas beteende och preferenser har visat sig vara värdefulla i samband med riktade annonser och personifierade webbsidor. Dessa insikter är byggda på data insamlat genom webbspårning, där korta kodavsnitt kan möjliggöra en övervakning av användarna över flertal webbplatser. Användarnas åsikter och beteende angående webbspårning och riktade annonser möter inte alltid varann, men globala dataintrång och andra missbruk har nyligen lyfts upp i medierna och orsakat stark offentlig kritik. Omfattningen av webbspårning har forskats från flera olika perspektiv, bland annat longitudinell och geografisk, men förståelsen om av vem och hur de finländska användarna spåras är snäv. I och med att tidigare forskning har visat en geografisk skiljaktighet inom webbspårning syftade avhandlingen att fylla denna kunskapslucka genom att undersöka webbspårning ur perspektivet av finländska webbanvändare. Avhandlingen använde sig av Alexas topp 500 webbsidor som finska användare besöker för att representera den finländska webbanvändningen. Sidornas spårningsanrop analyserades och dokumenterades med mätverktyget Tracker Tracker och resultatet berikades med data från Disconnect, som länkade de iakttagna spårningsskripten till organisationerna bakom dem. Mätningen fann 466 unika spårningsskript av 408 organisationer på 410 av de 500 webbsidorna. Avhandlingens resultat stödde tidigare forskning, med en suverän ledningsposition för Google, med spårningsskripten Google Analytics och Doubleclick i spetsen, observerades på 75 % webbsidorna. Facebooks spårningsverktyg var näst populärast med 46 %. Den påföljande rangordningen var skenbart jämnare och bildade slutligen en långt sluttande svans. Det tillkom även märkbara skillnader mellan finländska och icke-finländska sidor, vilket tydde på en geografisk preferens av annonsplatformer och analytiska verktyg på de finländska webbsidorna. Nyckelord: webbspårning, spårningsanrop, kakor, tredje partens spårning, riktade annonser, dataskydd, finländska webbanvändare iii CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION ....................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Aim of the study................................................................................................ 2 1.2 Research questions ........................................................................................... 2 1.3 Delimitations .................................................................................................... 2 1.4 Key concepts ..................................................................................................... 3 1.5 Structure of the thesis ...................................................................................... 5 2 EXISTING RESEARCH..............................................................................................7 2.1 What is online tracking? ....................................................................................7 2.2 Online tracking methods .................................................................................10 2.3 Online tracking justification ............................................................................ 16 2.4 Online tracking prevalence .............................................................................. 19 2.4.1 Longitudinal research .................................................................................. 21 2.4.2 Regional research ....................................................................................... 25 2.5 Tracking measurement tools .......................................................................... 27 2.6 Privacy ............................................................................................................ 30 2.6.1 Data collection ............................................................................................ 32 2.6.2 Data processing .......................................................................................... 35 3 RESEARCH METHODS .......................................................................................... 39 3.1 Research design .............................................................................................. 39 3.2 Input data gathering ....................................................................................... 39 3.2.1 Alexa ........................................................................................................... 40 3.2.2 Disconnect ................................................................................................... 41 3.3 Data collection and measurement tool ............................................................ 41 3.3.1 Tracker Tracker .......................................................................................... 42 3.3.2 Ghostery ..................................................................................................... 45 3.4 Data gathering considerations ....................................................................... 46 3.5 Data gathering process ................................................................................... 49 3.6 Data categorization ......................................................................................... 50 3.7 Data interpretation choices ............................................................................ 50 3.8 Quality of the study ......................................................................................... 51 4 RESULTS AND ANALYSIS ..................................................................................... 53 4.1 Data description ............................................................................................. 53 4.2 Tracker Prevalence ......................................................................................... 55 iv 4.3 The Finnish digital footprint .......................................................................... 58 4.4 Tracking in Finland ........................................................................................ 60 4.5 Other findings ................................................................................................. 65 5 DISCUSSION .......................................................................................................... 67 5.1 Results and implications ................................................................................ 67 5.2 Limitations ....................................................................................................

  • Swinglifestyle
    SwingLifestyle Swing Lifestyle aka sls.com! When you say swing, what's the 1st thing that comes to your mind? For me, it's the baseball swing to my neighbor's car, to other's it might be a sew-saw swing or a punch, you know, like swinging. Everyone has their own interpretation of what swinging means to them but if you ask my uncle Ronnie, and by the way, he is a dirty old man who still is a horn dog and has a 30 year younger fiancee, to him, it means changing partners, having sex with them all the while you still remain together with the spouse that you just traded off. Yes, swingers were the taboo of the 70s but now in the 2018s, they are almost outted completely. Still, they are not as overt as some other sex branches are because they have class. When you check out a site called Swinglifestyle.com aka sls.com you will get dates, holiday bookings, sex stories and so much more. It is a site that's dedicated to swingers and it involves everything that comes along for the ride. With the logo that Swing Life Style has I expected a Unicef type of a site. The whole look is like a retirement home site would have, like "Sunny Acres, the only resort that your granny will feel like at home", something like that. That purplish white look just doesn't say "edgy", it says "you're old, get your caskets on time, old timer". I don't know, there was something about the look but fine.

  • La Pornografía En Los Tiempos Del Coronavirus
    La pornografía en los tiempos del coronavirus NIEVES PASCUAL Universidad Internacional de Valencia Resumen El presente ensayo investiga el regalo que el 24 de marzo de 2020 el sitio pornográfico Pornhub ofrece a los usuarios como entretenimiento durante el confinamiento por el coronavirus. Investiga las razones públicas de este presente y el incremento en el consumo de porno que se produce a raíz del aburrimiento que genera la cuarentena. Propone que si bien Pornhub procura protegernos del COVID-19, la reciprocidad a la que nos obliga su obsequio no es simétrica. Palabras claves: pornografía, Pornhub, regalo, adicción, epidemia Abstract This essay investigates the gift that on March 24, 2020, the pornographic site Pornhub offers users as entertainment during the confinement due to the Coronavirus. It investigates the public reasons motivating the gift, and the increase in porn consumption caused by the boredom generated by the quarantine. It proposes that while Pornhub may intend to help protect consumers from COVID-19, the reciprocity its gift obliges us with is not symmetrical. Key words: pornography, Pornhub, gift, addiction, epidemic Junto a Bongacams, Chaturbate, Redtube y Xhamster, Pornhub.com, calificado en las redes como “el sitio web de porno más grande del mundo”, se sitúa entre los cinco portales pornográficos de más audiencia a nivel global. El 17 de marzo de 2020 Pornhub regalaba su contenido Premium en España para ayudar a entretenernos durante la cuarentena por el coronavirus. “¡Vamos, España!”, se leía en la página de inicio. Sobre el fondo de un mapa tricolor del país y la figura de una gitana enarbolando su abanico, el mensaje, en <https://es.pornhub.com>, era el siguiente: En vista de la expansión de las cuarentenas, estamos extendiendo el acceso gratuito a Free Pornhub Premium para este mes a nuestros amigos de España, y así ayudar a pasar el tiempo y mantenernos entretenidos.

Samenvatting Deze masterproef focust op Facebook resistance, een fenomeen dat erg actueel is, maar in de academische literatuur amper aandacht geniet. Van Dijck’s classificatie van sociale media langsheen een technoculturele (gebruikers en gebruik, content, technologie) en socio-economische dimensie (beleid, eigenaarschap, business model), lijkt geschikt om het onderwerp in de juiste context te kaderen. Doorheen deze zes niveaus komen van Dijck’s concepten van ‘friending’ en ‘sharing’ veelvuldig aan bod. Deze ervoeren een verschuiving van ‘connectedness’ naar ‘connectivity’. Dit betekent een verregaande commercialisering en comodificatie
