I suspect anything other than newssuite.sony.net are currently not in-use or dead, but at least this newssuite.sony.net is used on several JP websites; although as 3rd party, not covered by major anti-tracking lists.

Here's the website I originally found the script (mobile site):

Here's one of the script:
http://d.newssuite.sony.net/js/a_ssl.js
Well, I see it's more of an ad-script than tracker, so you many not want to add it.

I'm not currently focusing on ads, unless they do some tracking too (most of them are). However I can easily create another list with ads included since they also use this technique. There will be not a lot of material, but it's definitely possible.

While I set that up, do you mind answering a few question for "research"?

  1. The link for the Javascript is giving me a 403, it's only on my side? I guess it's because I'm in Europe?
  2. Usually first-party trackers/ads use the same domain (e.g. ads.jiji.com) as some trackers blocks anything not *.jiji.com. Here, it's using sony.net. Do you know if both sites are related somehow? Same question for ozmall.co.jp and enhance.co.jp (from #18).
