Code: Select all

https://www.kritische-anleger.de/

includes a tracking script

Code: Select all

https://api.kritische-anleger.de/latest.js

Note that

Code: Select all

api.kritische-anleger.de

is a CNAME for

Code: Select all

simpleanalyticsexternal.com

which belongs to third party tracking company Simple Analytics B.V. as explained here:

Code: Select all

https://docs.simpleanalytics.com/bypass-ad-blockers

. So this is cloaked third party tracking and therefore should be within the scope of EasyPrivacy.

Note that the script surpisingly checks the Do-not-track setting in the browser. If enabled, it does not fire the request containing the collected tracking data itself. But the script itself is still fetched leaking at least the IP address to the third party, even with DNT enabled. Without DNT enabled, additional details like screen resoultion, User-Agent, time zone, ... are leaked to them.

A filter like

Code: Select all

||simpleanalyticsexternal.com^

whould help for ad blockers which can resolve CNAME cloaking. Maybe

Code: Select all

||api.kritische-anleger.de^

should be added as well.
