Ghostery
hungryhounduk
Hey Coders

Just a little app that i thought i would share with you :)

Are you FED UP with being tracked on the Internet? or Have you not realised that everytime you log on to the Internet there are loads of Company's that Track your Every Move :(

Well Try Ghostery out and see just who's Tracking you online

This is an app for Chrome and puts an Icon on the address bar for easy access to view the Trackers and options to Block or Unblock them..

The PIC BELOW is a screen capture of Ghostery catching all the Trackers that try and lock onto me while i am online, You can block or unblock them, so it's pretty good at catching them.

Ohhh No My secret is out lmao;

I only use the Rough end of the Pineapple hehaho;

On a Serious note: I did not know that loads of Company's Track You online, But sometimes Ghostery has caught 19 Trackers omg; Although I dont visit Dodgy sites, I hate the thought of anyone Tracking me, So that is why I use this app, and so far it has been Great.

Honestly, I don't care much about being tracked.. It's just a statistical data and doesn't mean much to those who get it.. You're just an IP address, nothing else.. It's like voting on elections day, your vote doesn't make much change..

I used to use it but to be honest Ghostery tracks you itself. I wouldn't recommend it if you're serious about your privacy, although to be honest even being connected to the internet makes you not secure. If you want to block common tracking services you should just edit your hosts file so it redirects all the tracking and ad domains to 127.0.0.1
