<story><title>AdGuard publishes a list of 6K+ trackers abusing the CNAME cloaking technique</title><url>https://github.com/AdguardTeam/cname-trackers</url></story><parent_chain></parent_chain><comment><author>endisneigh</author><text>I wonder if the end game of adblocking is simply to proxy the entire page to the client - completely obscuring who you are or where the request originated.&lt;p&gt;edit: I almost wonder if this could be done safely in a decentralized manner. Everyone runs a BitTorrent like service and when you make a request the swarm proxies it to a specific node who then serves the page back to you.&lt;p&gt;Under this scheme it would become impossible to trace who you are.</text></comment>
