An interesting thing: All of the analytics on Medium's front page are recorded by having their own internal JS ping an off-page script.
-
Ah, interesting, forgot I had DNT on. So Medium is tracking me w/its internal analytics on the front page regardless of DNT, it looks like.
-
The same is true of their publisher partners, they force partners to respect DNT, no GA, Parsely, or Doubleclick if your browser has it on
-
Huh, even without DNT, their GA data sure looks like it would be sparse.
-
Worth noting that Doubleclick is what is driving the ad footprint on Medium.
