The WEB Spies On You

Did you know that most ads you see only leave tracking cookies on your machine? These cookies capture your click patterns and browsing habits to create detailed profiles about your preferences that are used to target ads to you better. But it doesn’t stop there, certain advertising companies also sell this marketing data to other vendors that show your IP’s clicking and browsing history. Creepy!

Just by visiting the opt out pages of Network Advertising and Nielson Net Ratings you have the ability to say “No Thanks” to almost every major ad tracking service. Sure you can run your browser with no cookies, but that is not the most pleasurable web experience is it?
