In 2017, Apple announced Safari’s new, on-by-default Intelligent Tracking Prevention feature. It started a revolution among major browser vendors and spawned new web standards initiatives in permissions, ad attribution measurement, storage isolation, and logins. This talk will look at where the web platform is today, where privacy-focused browsers are headed, and what the major challenges are to get to a modern, privacy-preserving web.
