Commercial Surveillance: Rough, unfinished, work notes on this topic

For years I have been reading about how Internet enabled activities have evolved into a complex global organism that closely monitors, observes, analyzes, and monitizes our behaviors (surveillance). Those practices have enabled parallel analysis and prediction industries that "add value" to surveillance data (direct data, inferred data, and data from first- or third-party sources). Law enforcement organizations increrasingly consume a range of survelliance data across their operations. Government organizations also seem to invest increasing energy (and money) in a broad spectrum of digital data collection. One facet of that activity is aimed at establishing digital-identity systems (with an emphasis on smartphone, on-line identity and traffic monitoring integration) and another is to develop and maintain a social graph to help -- among other things -- identify and index our activities and relationships and to predict opportunities to extract value from us...

I agree with Geoffrey A. Fowler that there are many reasons that we need to keep asking ourselves not only "what I can get out of any given technology" but "what that technology gets from me."

What is the purpose of this file?

These notes are in support of a still-vaguely-imagined recreational software project that would make some of information about Internet surveillance vendors (or some of those real organizations who decided to monitize data about you as a new revenue stream) available via API, browser, or both. It may also have an informing role for any reader.

Who might care?

  • Forensic technicians and blue teams.
  • Developers interested in writing applications in ways that share/expose less data associated with their users.
  • Those interested in reducing their exposure to data collectors and scavengers.
  • Those interested in reducing (or enhancing) the effectiveness of AI-driven personalized maniplation.
  • Those interested in open source projects that involve scraping web sites or other data sources.
  • Those interested in helping women (and those who support them) protect their reproductive rights. Note1
  • Any organization that sells anything.
  • Any organization whose mission is to influence defined populations.
  • Political actors attempting to gain advantage (broadly defined).
  • Law enforcement personnel.
  • Military (or para-military) personnel.
  • Government investigators & lawyers.
  • Private investigators & lawyers.
  • And more.

This is not a new issue:

Bruce Schneier (7 years ago): "Surveillance is the business model of the internet. Everyone is under constant surveillance by many companies, ranging from social networks like Facebook to cellphone providers. This data is collected, compiled, analyzed, and used to try to sell us stuff. Personalized advertising is how these companies make money, and is why so much of the internet is free to users. We're the product, not the customer." https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2017/08/when-it-comes-to-internet-privacy-be-very-afraid-analyst-suggests/
For a common and specific example see: "Yes, Your TV Is Probably Spying on You. Your Fridge, Too. Here’s What They Know." By Rachel Cericola, Jon Chase and Lee Neikirk. 25 June 2025.

Data gatherers and data aggregators are also material contributors to law enforcement and broader investigative activities via their responses to subpoenas, search warrants (plus other types of court orders), emergency disclosure requests, pen register orders, wiretap orders, preservation requests and more. For example, between Jan 2021 – Jun 2021 Google responded to more than 50,000 requests for disclosure of user information on more than 115,000 accounts. https://transparencyreport.google.com/user-data/overview

“Data is a decisive factor in establishing market power. The use of the very personal data (associated with) consumers by the large internet companies can also be abusive under antitrust law,” said Andreas Mundt, who heads the German cartel office.

"FTC Surveillance Pricing Study Indicates Wide Range of Personal Data Used to Set Individualized Consumer Prices The agency details interim insights from staff perspective examining how companies track consumer behaviors to inform surveillance pricing." January 17, 2025:

"The Federal Trade Commission’s initial findings from its surveillance pricing market study revealed that details like a person’s precise location or browser history can be frequently used to target individual consumers with different prices for the same goods and services. The staff perspective is based on an examination of documents obtained by FTC staff’s 6(b) orders sent to several companies in July aiming to better understand the shadowy market that third-party intermediaries use to set individualized prices for products and services based on consumers’ characteristics and behaviors, like location, demographics, browsing patterns and shopping history. Staff found that consumer behaviors ranging from mouse movements on a webpage to the type of products that consumers leave unpurchased in an online shopping cart can be tracked and used by retailers to tailor consumer pricing."

Is there anything that you can do?

Resist surveillance where you can.
"Delete your digital history from dozens of companies with this app." By Geoffrey A. Fowler, October 3, 2023. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/10/03/delete-personal-data-privacy-free-app/

Some Terms:

  • "surveillance advertising" -- Characterized by Leigh Freund, President and CEO, Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): "tailored advertising is a key driver of the robust and competitive digital media marketplace that provides substantial benefits to consumers, publishers and advertisers." Simple observation leads me to believe that surveillance advertising technologies and operations are designed and implemented to shape markets and business models, and in some instances, to generate additional cash flows via sales of raw data.
  • "Dark patterns" -- Data-driven techniques intentionally used to mislead or manipulate users, obscuring, subverting or impairing consumer autonomy, decision-making, or choice. An implication of this common definition is that the end result of the manipulation is a harmful or undesirable outcome for the user. Advertisers and their advocates promote analogies with practices used in the physical world like product placement by a retailer to promote certain products over others which they characterize as consistent with the objectives and preferences of its shoppers.
  • "notice and choice" -- The Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) promotes a notice and choice framework "within the digital advertising marketplace, and to enable people to make informed decisions -- both initially and with persistence -- about the use of their data for advertising purposes." Vendors and human tracking companies appear to use a fog of ever-evolving technology, long piles of text and interlinked policy statements (too often intentionally opaque to normal people) to enable these informing obligations. Then they characterize these behaviors as models of "clarity, efficiency and effectiveness."
  • Browser Fingerprinting -- A material population of users attempt to manage their exposure to cookies from 'tracking companies.' These commercial data collectors and scavengers play a foundational role in identifying the sites you have visited and your activities on each of them. Some browsers resist/block third-party cookies by default, and others have that feature available. There are also a range of browser extensions and plug-ins available to help users manage who gets to deposit and access cookies on their endpoint(s). Because these user-protecting technologies are useful (while, imperfect), tracking organizations also employ 'browser fingerprinting' to help identify who you are and where you have been. Vendors measure a number of characteristics of your endpoint environment that can be surprisingly unique. Using a fingerprinting utility from EFF https://coveryourtracks.eff.org the endpoint on which I am writing this text was elatively unique: "browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 167,732 tested in the past 45 days." This may be, in part, that I am running a Linux variant and my laptop has ancient NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M/PCIe/SSE2 video support, used in a 'WebGL Vendor & Renderer' measurement... Here is a list of endpoint attributes used by the EFF fingerprint platform:

Headers (for example, "User Agent," or "HTTP_ACCEPT"), Browser Plugin Details, Time Zone Offset, Time Zone, Screen Size and Color Depth, System Fonts, Are Cookies Enabled?, DOM localStorage (Yes/No), DOM sessionStorage (Yes/No), IE userData (Yes/No), openDatabase (Yes/No), indexed db (Yes/No), Flash animation support (Yes/No), Hash of HTML5 canvas fingerprint (a very reliable fingerprinting value for trackers), Hash of WebGL fingerprint, WebGL Vendor & Renderer, DNT Header Enabled? (Yes/No), Language, Hardware Specs (operating system), Touch Support (Yes/No), Ad Blocker Used (Yes/No), AudioContext fingerprint, CPU Class, Hardware Concurrency (number of CPU cores), and Device Memory (GB).
