Any recommendations or pointers in the right direction would be...

Fingerprinting works by collecting bits of information about the browser and device to identify users. Couldn’t browsers see when a website gets such info with JS and either prevent or ask permission from the user for the website to make HTTP requests to upload such information to the website. Idk if they do something like...

I can’t seem to find an actual currency estimate of how much privacy is actually worth. I see a ton of articles talking about why privacy should be worth more to people or what people would pay for privacy services or how much people would sell their privacy for, but I don’t see anything that gives a value for the privacy...
