9 SEP 2024 · In today's episode, Matt and Andrew explore Google's u-turn on the deprecation of 3rd party cookies and what does this mean in our industry. As part of the discussion, we start off discussing what are cookies, the difference between 1st party and 3rd party cookies, the difference between using a cookie and browser storage, what does the u-turn actually mean and two of Google's other initiatives (Manifest V3 and Google AI Overview).
After the session, Matt found a LinkedIn post that was relevant for this conversation: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jonsuarezdavis_marketing-martech-data-activity-7232432383872897026-K97K?utm_source=share&utm_medium=DigitalAfterDark-Podcast
Stay to the end to explore a section of the podcast that got cut for some humorous reasons.
What are your thoughts on Google's decision not to deprecate 3rd party cookies and all things Google? Join the conversation in the comments section. And as always, you can contact Matt and Andrew at: https://gmail.com
11 AUG 2024 · In today's episode, Matt and Andrew explore "The Ethics in Data Collection", exploring how we looked at ethics at the start of our career to current. We felt this reflection is important as the UK are discussing the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill (DPDIB), which is currently in the House of Lords. You can find more information about the bill from the same website Andrew references in the episode: https://www.dqmgrc.com/blog/the-ultimate-guide-to-the-new-dpdi-data-protection-and-digital-information-bill
We then end discussing the Code of Ethics that started nearly a decade ago by the Digital Analytics Association (https://www.digitalanalyticsassociation.org/codeofethics) and if there should be a renewed push for Ethical data collection. Ultimately, if ethics does not play a part in our own career, it will be mandated by the government; shouldn't we get ahead of it while we still can?
Andrew then talks about attending a webinar that Simo Ahava presented called "10 Game Changing Uses for Chrome DevTools" where you can use Chrome Functionality without the need of extensions. You can watch the replay here: https://measuresummit.com/training/lunch-learn-replay What are your thoughts on the new DPDIB?
