I built this list with the Activity window from an old release of Safari. I expect there's lots of ways you could do it, I often contemplate such ways but this way works pretty well.

Just open the Activity window then visit a few random, at least somewhat sketchy websites. Pop-culture news sites are good. You'll see lots of 43 or 60 byte GIFs, commonly they will have lots of query parameters in the URLs, sometimes I see one-byte javascripts.



https://www.requestpolicy.com/ is useful in this regard as well. - Firefox plugin to block cross-domain content.

lots of websites pull shit from 20+ 3rd party domains. An obnoxious number of sites block/don't render completely ( or at all ) without allowing shit from all over the web to load.


I used to use RequestPolicy, but found Policeman is better.
