Google has been kicking the can on ending third party cookie support for years. Chrome has such a large market share that whatever they decide to do has a huge impact on the ability to monetize content with ads.
There’s no clear direct replacement for identifying users for ad targeting outside of 3pty cookies. Lots of competing ‘privacy preserving frameworks’ but they all need buy in from many players at scale to be effective.
Yeah I distinctly remember N64 games being $60 in the late 90s. We saved a lot with digital downloads vs retail over the years but it is funny that games have largely been level in price for 30 years at this point.
This tracks. Signal claims to have your phone number and logs on the last time that number accessed the service.
They could not generate new access codes via Twilio when certain patterns are detected and still be within that known data.
Well at least Nicole from Toronto in their inbox.

Went down the hole, part of it soon to become a Microsoft data center. Makes sense when you have access to a shit ton of fresh water.
I would be curious to poll the Seattle WTO protesters and see how they voted in the last election.
I recently moved to the Midwest from the West Coast and understand how Globalist policy kinda sucks for a lot of people out here.
First 48 is about finding a victim alive. Murderers are commonly identified and caught outside that window.
Back in 2014 RIF was $2 one time purchase for a completely ad free experience. I knew that couldn’t last forever, but I enjoyed the 9 years I did have.
I went from an 07 Escape to a 2023 RAV4. The thing just won’t shut the fuck up. Mike any kinda of parking the detection beeps. Console software is annoying.
Miss my relatively dumb car.
If they are trying to monetize popular NSFW subs they cannot monetize with ads, a paywall would probably just kill the engagement.
If they are trying to compete with OnlyFans and rev share with the sub creator I could maybe see that working.
And then there’s the third, even weirder type. Mongo matter
What would you use this feature for?
I don’t see how it could be enforced without this. If you are operating internationally, comply or block your service from regions you cannot legally operate in.
Personally I don’t think Lemmy should comply. It’s an ad free community service with zero PII obligation besides an email and whatever IP you choose to connect from. No one has to be on Lemmy for any common social obligations.
If you want to be forgotten then leave!
Scale. It’s a better quality audience but executives like BIG NUMBERS to make the juice worth the squeeze.
I think the investment supporting is worth it in the long run! Traditional social is basically a shitty rev share to reach a larger audience.
Limited view tickets were $1500 a piece when TS came to Levi stadium. Bonkers
What’s the identifier referenced in the IMDB database? Some kind of unique content id?
I think doing that with programmatic ads would be difficult. Maybe hard coding a specific creative would be feasible.
I would like to imagine a world where site advertising was reasonable. Ad blockers don’t exist, sites advertise 1 or 2 banners at $3-5 CPM and everyone gets paid and consumes content in synchrony. It won’t happen. Advertising is setup for ad blocking audiences and iOS cookieless environments. Everyone else subsidizes by viewing the myriad of placements splattered all over the page.
Randos on Twitter left negative comments with little to no substantive feedback. Fire up the article!
Yeah it’s arguable that Steam is a monopoly but somehow billion dollar publishers can’t create a store to sell their own products without fucking it up with annoying bullshit. Pay the 30% to protect you from yourselves.
