Watchkeeper Joins the Studio as a Tiny Browser That Shows Who Is Watching

Watchkeeper is the studio’s twenty-eighth project, and its first desktop app. It’s a small browser with a panel beside the page. As the page loads, the panel lists the other sites it tells about your visit, the cookies it leaves, the keys it writes to your computer and the scripts that read the features used to fingerprint a device, each named by site: “canvas by adnetwork.example”. How web tracking works explains why none of that shows in an ordinary window.
