Field notes
The page separates ordinary browser-readable features from inputs such as location and motion sensors, which it says require explicit browser permission. Its examples include canvas and sound patterns, while a touch-and-mouse display illustrates how interaction can be observed; the page compares that live visualization with session-replay services that retain visits. It also offers print, file-save, and forget controls, and says the consent choice itself is not stored.
