Although something like that is possible, unfortunately it would likely
let these other websites track our users in undesirable ways. For
example, for Facebook although we could modify our main web page
<https://www.iana.org/time-zones> to contain something like the
following ...
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script async defer crossorigin="anonymous"
src="https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v12.0"
nonce="23id6Sic"></script>
...
<div class="fb-share-button" data-href="https://www.iana.org/time-zones"
data-layout="button_count" data-size="small"><a target="_blank"
href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iana.org%2Ftime-zones&src=sdkpreparse"
class="fb-xfbml-parse-ignore">Share</a></div>
... this HTML would help Facebook track our visitors, even visitors who
don't use Facebook.
