Google-Tag-Manager
Google Tag Manager is a container that lets site operators deploy analytics and marketing tags without editing page code. It is detected from the gtm.js loader and the dataLayer object.
Because GTM can inject arbitrary scripts after page load, it materially expands what a page can do — a key reason to scan with a real browser rather than a static HTML fetch.
