Description Websites embed hundreds of web trackers which build their business on the collection of users' personal data. Anti-tracking (ad blocker, e.g., Ad Block Plus) technology help users protect their privacy. However, they also have implications on performance (e.g., slowing down you web-browsing experience), or break page rendering.
In this thesis, we are looking for talented programmers that would like to contribute to the creation of the Ermes Cyber Security solutions, by designing, implementing, and testing automatic tools for performance evaluation of anti-tracking systems.
