API and http header to determine if the useragent is logged in to a website.
Reasons:
- Need a way to determine if it’s safe to delete first party cookies/storage on a website for privacy reasons
isLoggedIn header should be a bool
window.IsLoggedIn should be a bool
Work around my extension implements:
Our chrome extension (https://baitblock.app) has a feature that resists against first party tracking of users (trackers are moving to 1st party). We have a pattern recognition system to determine if the user is logged in by visually understanding the page and it’s expensive to run every time.
