Methods and systems for protecting user-generated data in computer network traffic
A method for synchronizing, in a browser state of a web browser application, both automatically-generated content and user-generated content includes retrieving, by a controller application executing on a first computing device, from a profile database, profile content. The method includes receiving, by a first browser application, from the controller application, a first request including automatically-generated content based on the retrieved profile content. The method includes transmitting, by the first browser application, a first network request, the network request including the automatically-generated content. The method includes synchronizing, by a second browser application, a browser state of the second browser application with a browser state of the first browser application. The method includes receiving, by the second browser application, a second request including user-generated content. The method includes transmitting, by the second browser application, a second network request including the user-generated content and data from the synchronized browser state.
1. A method for synchronizing, in a browser state of a web browser application, automatically-generated content and user-generated content to statistically poison analytics of computer network traffic including data associated with the synchronized browser state, the method comprising:
retrieving, by a controller application executing on a first computing device, from a profile database, profile content;
receiving, by a first browser application executing on the first computing device, from the controller application, a first request including automatically-generated content based on the retrieved profile content;
transmitting, by the first browser application, a first network request, the network request including the automatically-generated content;
synchronizing, by a second browser application executing on the first computing device, a browser state of the second browser application with a browser state of the first browser application;
receiving, by the second browser application, a second request including user-generated content; and
transmitting, by the second browser application, a second network request including the user-generated content and data from the synchronized browser state.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the first request further comprises receiving a Domain Name Service lookup request.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the first network request further comprises transmitting, to a search engine, the first network request.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the second request further comprises receiving a Domain Name Service lookup request.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the second network request further comprises transmitting, to a search engine, the second network request including the user-generated content and data from the synchronized browser state.
6. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-readable instructions tangibly stored on the non-transitory computer-readable medium, wherein the instructions are executable by at least one processor to perform a method for synchronizing, in a browser state of a web browser application, automatically-generated content and user-generated content to statistically poison analytics of computer network traffic including data associated with the synchronized browser state, the method comprising:
retrieving, by a controller application executing on a first computing device, from a profile database, profile content;
receiving, by a first browser application executing on the first computing device, from the controller application, a first request including automatically-generated content based on the retrieved profile content;
transmitting, by the first browser application, a first network request, the network request including the automatically-generated content;
synchronizing, by a second browser application executing on the first computing device, a browser state of the second browser application with a browser state of the first browser application;
receiving, by the second browser application, a second request including user-generated content; and
transmitting, by the second browser application, a second network request including the user-generated content and data from the synchronized browser state.
7. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein receiving the first request further comprises receiving a Domain Name Service lookup request.
8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein transmitting the first network request further comprises transmitting, to a search engine, the first network request.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein receiving the second request further comprises receiving a Domain Name Service lookup request.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein transmitting the second network request further comprises transmitting, to a search engine, the second network request including the user-generated content and data from the synchronized browser state.
