The most common tool for this kind of tracking is a cookie: a small piece of text stored in your browser, associated with a particular domain. Cookies were invented to help site owners determine whether a user had visited their site before, which makes them ideal for tracking. — PolitiTweet.org

How do third parties track you across the web? Each time you visit a website, your computer makes a request to that website’s server. But in the background, it may also make dozens or even hundreds of requests to other third-party servers, many of which may be trackers. <THREAD> https://t.co/gKL5kViQtR — PolitiTweet.org

Cookies are always unique, and they normally persist until a user manually clears them. Cookies are always available to trackers in unmodified versions of Chrome, but third-party cookies are no longer available to many trackers in Safari and Firefox. — PolitiTweet.org
