Quick Review: Collusion - Firefox "tracking" add-on

<< < (2/6) > >>

TaoPhoenix:
Meanwhile I have a small graph, you can't stop all tracking but I close my browser enough it clearly isn't getting all my links (which is good?)

Tip : Youtube goes off like a machine gun when I search - one cookie per letter!

Edit: I just turned Ghostery back on, but I am still getting clicks from Youtube. So is that a false positive from the Collusion that it "attempted to set a cookie" or is Youtube setting something else that Ghostery can't find and block?

I wondered about this also, and am working to figure out whether these pests are actually being blocked.
Thinking wistfully of resuscitating JunkBuster...     ;)
