I was curious about this one, so I took a look.

    Hello from Gusto! Curious about how we work?

    "Peek" through the "window" to find out.
Okay, weird, but might be cool.

    window
Right at the top there's a bunch of junk that their third party scripts add... yuck, but totally common. But there's a bunch of other stuff that they clearly add to the global namespace for normal operations too. Yuck! Is this how you work?

Anyway, not fully caffeinated yet so I just scroll randomly (a standard `window` is enormous as it is, so there are surely needles in this haystack but I'm not getting methodical just yet).

    method: "trackPii"
This appears to be a part of their internal analytics. D:

I'm gonna stop right here because I don't really want to learn more, and I'll just continue my personal preference of never visiting Gusto unless my employer requires me to.
