# Privacy watchers see fears coming true with Google's FLoC - Host: [digiday.com](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/hosts/digiday.com/) - Saved: June 17, 2021 (2021-06-18T02:55:56Z) - Record: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/bf9c08a0deed/ - JSON: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/bf9c08a0deed.json ## What Jamie wrote This little dance Google is trying to do about getting rid of tracking cookies while at the same time trying to role out a brand new way of tracking is a bit ridiculous to watch.
