What Hacker News says
3 sourcesIf your site does not call document.interestCohort() or include ads, Chrome will already not consider your site in computing FLoC:
A page visit will be included in the browser's FLoC calculation if document.interestCohort() is used on the page. During the current FLoC origin trial, a page will also be included in the calculation if Chrome detects that the page load ads or ads-related resources. -- https://web.dev/floc/
Detecting "ads or ads-related resources" uses a filter derived from EasyList: https://github.com/chromium/chromium-ads-detection/blob/mast...
(Disclosure: I work for Google, speaking only for myself)
In Opting Your Website Out of Google's FLoC NetworkI'm pretty sure this is the list:
https://github.com/chromium/chromium-ads-detection/blob/mast...
It's derived from easylist, and (I think) scoped down based on things that actually show up in the top X websites.
