1481252 - [FastBlock] Expose information about trackers blocked by FastBlock and Tracking Protection via internal APIs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Safe Browsing, enhancement, P1)

Description

[Johann Hofmann [:johannh]]

For the FastBlock shield study (and presumably for future content blocking UI work), we need to know how many trackers are on the page and how many slow trackers were blocked by FastBlock.

This could be added e.g. to the top-level docshell associated with the request.

Due to the payload structure of the Shield study PHD I think it would be highly preferable to get this via a chrome API instead of just sending telemetry for this.
