Quick Review: Collusion - Firefox "tracking" add-on
IainB:
Just thought I'd post this which I stumbled upon today in Mashable:
Track Who’s Tracking You With Mozilla Collusion
The Collusion add-on is here.
Out of interest, I have it set to make a sound every time a cookie is set in my browser. It was clicking softly when I went back to the Mozilla add-on site to capture the URL for this post! :P
I'm not sure, but I think Collusion could be a useful addition to augment my privacy - or at least understand where my privacy is effectively being compromised. Knowledge is power, and ignorance is bliss, as they say.
Could be a useful/helpful add-on.
J-Mac:
Oohhh, be prepared for a LOT of clicking!

Quite a bit of tracking is still getting through, it seems.
J-Mac:
LOL! It is really tough to eliminate them all! :P

joiwind:
Only for FF ?
And it would be great to be able to delete them just by clicking ...
