Ever wonder why it feels like the ads
Online know you a little too well?
It's because they do.
You're being watched.
But how? And more importantly, why?
It's called "tracking".
Trackers follow you around the web,
collecting information
to sell to advertisers
who want to target you.
Trackers from over 1,000 companies
live everywhere online.
They embed code
into your browser
to remember things
about you later.
Some help sites remember your password
or keep your shopping cart intact.
But some like cross site trackers
invite other companies to follow you
from site to site
collecting personal information
that be like thousands of strangers
following your every move in real life
no thanks no one should profit off your
personal information without consent
firefox blocks this cross site tracking
cookies by default in fact we block over
10 billion trackers every day to see how
many trackers were blocking for you on
any given day you can check out your
