With all the jargon I read these days about 'Tracking Cookies' 'Smart Cookies' and just generally disturbing stuff 'highly personalized advertising on Facebook to me if you catch my drift I've recently downloaded http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ and be simply blowing up my cookies every couple of days.

 

I am feeling alot safer. Google cannot profile me as I remove their cookies and change my IP relentless, I am not being tracked, and advertising material, the rare bits that do get through to me is mostly unrelated.

 

How do you guys take care of your privacy online?

I rarely do this but I know that I need to. Just will not take too long to do, but it seems like by the time I remember I have the computer shut down already.

I thought this topic title is going to be a euphemism for something.

I'm pretty sure you can spoof that, if it's pulling from your user-agent values, people make plugins to do that. I mean, I'm pretty sure it doesn't stop the tracking really, but it helps.

 

Also, lel.

on topic: I don't delete my cookies. I used to have a browser that was impenetrable* by third parties, but I stopped caring. I don't even block ads anymore! :D (*It probably wasn't actually, the point is that I used to care a lot about stuff like that.)

Yep, no way around not being tracked. Unless, of course, you are logged in through your neighbors wifi. :p
