Interesting, I would add this link to your presentation
https://github.com/vecna/trackmap , which I think explains/summarizes
well the project without overloading with technical details.

> Trackography is part of the MyShadow project (https://myshadow.org) and
> aims to increase global transparency about the data collection industry.
> You can find more about the project here:
> https://myshadow.org/trackography and explore Trackography through the

> Some tips how to reduce tracking:
> https://myshadow.org/trackography-solutions and some highlights based on
> the data that were collected

>
> It's an open source project that illustrates which companies track us
> when we read the news online, where our data travels to and how our data
> is handled everytime we access a media website within a period of time.
>
> In particular, when we access media websites Trackography shows:
>
> 1. the companies that track us
> 2. the countries which host the servers of these media websites
> 3. the countries which host the servers of tracking companies
> 4. the countries which own the network infrastructure required to access
> the servers of media websites and tracking companies
> 5. information about how some of the prevailing tracking companies
> handle our data
>
> The global data industry has been very opaque until now. Trackography
> was developed to not only increase transparency about the data
> collection industry, but to also start a discussion on unseen and
> unconsented data collection and on the politics of data.
