What is the reason that Mixpanel and GTM are on this page? Is there a specific reason that such invasive tracking is required for an educational resource that does not generate revenue?
They likely use some of the metrics to continue to get grant funding. You gave us $1m in grant money which we used to produce this webpage which has XXX millions of views. I'm sure other tools would suffice but given it's a project at Harvard, they may have institutional requirements.
