Description

What this extension does when you click it:
- Shows if the current site is using FLoC
- Shows if the current site explicitly blocking FLoC data collection

More info:
W3C is creating a new tracking system, first implemented in Chrome, called the Federated Learning of Cohorts (FLoC). This new tracking API categorizes people based on their browsing history and gives a cohort ID to a website that requests it. A cohort could contain a range of people, some could be in the thousands.

This could replace third party cookies, which will soon be removed in Chrome.

Note: Due to CORS issues, there are ways to evade detection of FLoC usage by this extension.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
