    Abstract: The method comprising: capturing and removing a public unique identifier set by a Website (300) in a computing device (100D) of a user (100); monitoring, during a first time-period, web-requests the user (100) makes to obtain a web-behavioral profile of the user (300), and storing the obtained web-behavioral profile as a first vector; tracking, during a second time-period, the web-requests to examine the effect each web-request has on assisting the de-anonymization of the user (100), obtaining a second vector; classifying, the obtained second vector taking into account a computed similarity score parameter; creating and mapping, a corresponding private unique identifier for said captured public identifier; and executing, based on said mapping between the private and the public unique identifiers, an intervention algorithm for said web-tracker, that considers a configured intervention policy.

    Abstract: A Method for increasing coverage and robustness against frequency offsets in wireless networks, user device and computer program productsIn the method, a user device (171) that wirelessly communicates with a base station (172) through a wireless network employing a Single Carrier-Frequency Division Multiple Access, SC-FDMA, comprises: applying a number of calculated repetitions of a block of complex information symbols prior to a SC-FDMA modulator (176), said number of repetitions being an integer submultiple of a number of subcarriers scheduled for uplink transmission according to the expression: NscUL=L×M with L and M integers; and applying, when mapping to scheduled resources in the SC-FDMA modulator (176), a frequency shift equal to a subcarrier width multiplied by one half of said number of repetitions.
