As third party cookies become less available, tracking will shift further towards fingerprinting and other forms of covert cross-site tracking.

While it is infeasible to fundamentally remove or change usage of IP addresses or web APIs which could be used for fingerprinting, it is possible to curtail access to these surfaces in scenarios that are sensitive for cross-site tracking.

Browsers have been developing and shipping mitigations using tracker lists as a pragmatic path forward -- spanning IP proxying and active fingerprinting mitigations. There are some common challenges and potential opportunities across browsers.
