Do Not Track +
- Essentially a browser plugin that blocks tracking data from reporting back about your visits.
- Chrome, FF, IE, Safari / Mac, PC
- Stops an awful lot of ‘chatter’ that goes between advertising and tracking companies and social visit tracking through like/+1 buttons.
- Stops analytics tracking.
- Doesn’t stop some tracking - especially where logged in and interacting with social buttons so not fool proof by any means
