    Default I'm Sick Of Everyone On The Internet Tracking Everything I Do

    I'm Sick Of Everyone On The Internet Tracking Everything I Do.


    ...So I downloaded this free Chrome extension:
    https://www.abine.com/dntdetail.php

    And then when I came back to my ar-15.co tab, it showed that google analytics was tracking me.

    Not any more:



    As another example, this is when I went to Imgur:


    A few more screen caps from Facebook. View #1


    View#2:


    Ironically, I went to my Gmail and wasn't being tracked by anyone. Of course Google can see everything there, but at least nobody else was tracking me.


    For Clarification:

    This isn't about tinfoil and paranoia. This is about my privacy being invaded without my knowledge or consent. In the age when "the land of the free" spies on its own people almost as much as it spies on our allies (France, England, Australia et.al., aren't happy about that btw), It might be wise to take some steps to protect your privacy. If there is a product or method you use to prevent internet tracking, phone tracking, or other unwarranted "spying", please post it here for the greater good of our community!

    Stop using your phones, watching tv, using your grocery discount card when shopping.

    Where's the option for which government agencies are tracking me, foreign and domestic?
    Liberals never met a slippery slope they didn't grease.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    +1 for Ghostery

    Also use Adblock Plus & Adblock Plus Element Hider for Firefox.

    You can alway use a full blow proxy configuration like HMA (Hide My Ass)
    If your post count is higher than your round count, you are a troll.
