The purpose of remote APIs which everyone is using lately is to extend the user tracking habits past
the normal ads and 1pixel images as those are limited to someone adding them to the webpage and
be paid for it (well for showing the banner) while js like google apis are a much more elegant way of
achieving the same: provide something usefull what everyone will use and get the HTTP headers
for each user of site. As the domain stays the google cookies are also received and voila, you have
a global tracking without a possibility for a user to ban the domain (as the webpage wont render
correctly).
Can you, in a "spirit of Iron", add a local cache for remote APIs (in a form of host list, where the non
cached js would still be gathered from the host but only once with a separate call stripping all unneeded
headers and cache it localy while the call to that host would be banned to connect to the internet for
everything else)?
Caching of offsite APIs (googleapi,....)
