LightBeam

[RhodyRams]

LightBeam is an add on (script) available with Firefox browser that tracks your movement around the www and tells you through a graph which 2nd and 3rd party sites are tracking you as you surf.

I visited 10 sites today, but have been connected to an additional 136 sites !!!


To me that is some freaky shit.

Yeah, I have a couple of add-ons for Chrome that eliminate tracking. Or so I think.

If it's your history you're worried about, just open the browser in stealth mode.

Install CCleaner and just run it regularly to clean (and erase) everything

no its just freaky sometimes when I start looking into different suppliers for work, comparing prices and such, and then start getting ads on FB for cabinets, sheetrock siding etc.


Might go to web MD and look up "anal leakage" just to see what ads pop up !!!
