Article 12 protects privacy, family, home, and correspondence. Extensive third-party tracking infrastructure present: Google Analytics, AdThrive ad network, OnThe.io analytics, OneSignal notifications, cookie-based user tracking, email hash collection via URL parameters, localStorage persistence. Multiple data collection vectors operating simultaneously. Ad-hiding conditional on contributor status creates privacy stratification. Domain-level modifier for ad tracking (-0.12) and privacy collection mechanisms (-0.08) reinforces structural privacy invasion.
Observable Facts
Google Analytics tracking code (GTM-NBTPJP) embedded in page header.
AdThrive ad network script loads conditionally based on ad-hiding cookie state.
Email hash collection script (adt_ei parameter) processes URL parameters and stores hashed values in localStorage.
OnThe.io analytics service loaded via preconnect and script tags.
OneSignal push notification service initialized with app ID.
Cookie functions defined to set, read, and erase cookies across macrumors.com domain.
Skim Resources affiliate link tracking via preconnect.
User status determination based on forum login cookies (xf_logged_in, xf_contributor).
Inferences
Multiple simultaneous tracking services indicate systematic data collection beyond what is necessary for core article delivery.
Conditional ad-hiding based on contributor status suggests privacy features are stratified by user type, reducing equal protection.
localStorage and cookie persistence mechanisms enable long-term user profiling across sessions.
Email parameter collection and hashing suggests intent to identify and track individual users across visits.

Article 19 protects freedom of opinion and expression, and right to receive and impart information. Article provides factual news coverage with identified source attribution (Bloomberg report), named author (Juli Clover), and transparent editorial structure.
