| design [2026/09/11 10:50] – Add Design:Algorithm audits to the namespace table (written 2026-09-11); refresh the row count 15 -> 16. Authored by Claude karel.kubicek.claude | design [2026/09/12 17:31] (current) – Add Design:Connected TV (written 2026-09-12) to the table; child count 17 -> 18.

| | [[Design:Blocking and geodifference]] | What your vantage point was **not allowed to see**: geoblocking, GDPR walls, censorship and network interference — and what a blocking claim has to contain before a reviewer accepts it. | written 2026-09-10 | | | [[Design:Blocking and geodifference]] | What your vantage point was **not allowed to see**: geoblocking, GDPR walls, censorship and network interference — and what a blocking claim has to contain before a reviewer accepts it. | written 2026-09-10 | |
| | [[Design:Algorithm audits]] | The differential experiment: sock-puppet accounts and trained profiles as **arms**, what a control arm is here, carry-over between arms, and sizing the noise floor before claiming a difference. | written 2026-09-11 | | | [[Design:Algorithm audits]] | The differential experiment: sock-puppet accounts and trained profiles as **arms**, what a control arm is here, carry-over between arms, and sizing the noise floor before claiming a difference. | written 2026-09-11 | |
| | | [[Design:Ownership resolution]] | Attributing a third-party domain to a **company**: which of the three ownership databases to use now, what share of the third-party surface each can name, how often each is right, and what a reviewer needs before accepting "//N//% of sites contact Google". | written 2026-09-11 | |
| | | [[Design:Connected TV]] | Smart TVs, sticks and set-top boxes: how you intercept traffic when the device //is// the browser, automatic content recognition, HbbTV, TV app stores, and what stands in for a ranking list when there is no Tranco. | written 2026-09-12 | |

| Read [[Design:Website selection]] and [[Design:Sampling]] together: one is which list, the other is how you draw. [[Design:Crawling location]] is the address you control; [[Design:IP classification]] is everyone else's. [[Design:Platforms]] is the case where none of that applies, because the platform, not a ranking, defines the population. [[Design:DNS]] is the step before all of them: the resolution that turns a name in your list into the address you connect to, and what that step alone can get wrong. [[Design:Platforms:Ad archives]] is the only child page in this namespace: it sits under [[Design:Platforms]] because it is one route in, not a namespace of its own. [[Design:Blocking and geodifference]] is the pair to [[Design:Crawling location]]: that page is how you choose where to appear from, this one is what that choice may not be allowed to see, and the phenomenon was split out of it on 2026-09-10 because a 30 KB page about choosing a vantage point is the wrong home for the instruments and error rates of censorship measurement. [[Design:Algorithm audits]] is the one design in this namespace where the population is not a list of websites but a set of **identities you construct**; it is the design [[Programming:Stateful stateless]] describes the machinery for and [[Statistics:Hypothesis testing]] describes the test for, and until 2026-09-11 nobody owned the experiment itself. | Read [[Design:Website selection]] and [[Design:Sampling]] together: one is which list, the other is how you draw.

[[Design:Ownership resolution]] is the other page added that day, and it is a **carve-out rather than a new topic**: the material existed under [[Programming:Crawler:webXray]], the name of a tool that has not shipped since 2021, where nobody asking "whose domain is this?" would look. That page is now about webXray itself and links here. [[Design:Connected TV]], added on 2026-09-12, is the one page in this namespace where almost **none** of the wiki's instrumentation transfers: 26 of its 35 papers carry the ''iot'' platform and exactly one carries ''web'', so the crawler, the filter list and the ranking list all have to be replaced rather than adapted. |

| Two of these pages describe how the corpus name-folds interact: "Alexa" in a paper's stated population is the retired ranking list of [[Design:Website selection]] in **412** papers and an Amazon platform in **39**, and "Amazon" is [[Design:User studies]]' Mechanical Turk in **179**. [[Design:Platforms]] publishes that fold in full. | Two of these pages describe how the corpus name-folds interact: "Alexa" in a paper's stated population is the retired ranking list of [[Design:Website selection]] in **412** papers and an Amazon platform in **39**, and "Amazon" is [[Design:User studies]]' Mechanical Turk in **179**.

| The **5,859** / **1,120** are paper counts from the 5,859-paper extraction (seven venues, 2010–2026). 2025–2026 venue-years are provisional — see [[literature:corpus]]. The **16** is the number of rows in the table above, counted on 2026-09-11, when [[Design:Algorithm audits]] was added. Two corrections were made that day: the count read **12** against a 13-row table (stale since [[Design:Platforms:Ad archives]] was added on 2026-09-08), and [[Design:Existing datasets]] — a live page in this namespace since before either — **was missing from the table altogether**, found by a review pass on [[Design:Blocking and geodifference]]. The **11** in the box is the number of pages [[start]] used to promise in this namespace; [[start]] no longer lists individual pages, so that number is a historical count and not a live one.
