While reading about privacy in Fediverse: "You will still have to evaluate the tracking status of the server you are on and can't just rely on the software it uses" https://blog.soykaf.com/post/privacy-and-tracking-on-the-fediverse/, I realized that there is no service yet that checks the instances to see if they have tracking cookies built in. Probably the fewest will have it. I think that this should be made visible. Sure, we nerds can check it individually with our tools and browser add-ons, but new users are partly here in fediverse because they don't want to be in environments where they become a product, capital etc. again. pawoo.net [(Pixiv on wikipedia)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixiv) uses Google Analytics for example.
Similar to GreenFediverse, my goal is to create awareness. Very roughly technically outlined, I imagine a matching of Fediverse instances with e.g. uBlock Origin, where the results are displayed in a list.
What do you think about this? Maybe this would be a project that can protect us quite well against the commercialization of our network?
From an ecological point of view, this counter-tracking of tracking would mean making the advertising and marketing industry visible, not only from a privacy point of view, but also because tracking consumes unnecessary energy resources.
Should we expand the list? We talked about web hosts that respect privacy already, but my question would be more like: what about instances?
