Ask HN: Identifying _wamtcstandards in the Wild
For some time now, I've been finding an entity named "_wamtcstandards" in my cookies and local/session storage. What is its purpose? Where does it come from? The stored value seems to be a hashed or encrypted value that might be unique and possibly personally identifiable. When deleted, it will be replaced.
- yorwba 7y agoIt might be some extension you have installed, at least that's what I found searching the cookie name on GitHub: https://github.com/snyderp/web-api-manager/blob/edde693ba53fa3484087abf610bfb76742abe066/add-on/lib/init.js https://github.com/snyderp/web-api-manager/blob/edde693ba53f...
- cloud_thrasher 7y agoI do believe you're correct. I've run searches for the last few months and came up with nothing. Hate when I can't figure something out. Thanks.
