Manage Who Tracks You Online




Tracking online activities and search requests is big part of today’s Internet and it’s easy for companies to track your every move. 

Since most people are taking more of an interest in their privacy online, finding tools that allow you to see who’s tracking you and blocking them are becoming more popular. 

A tool called ‘Disconnect’ gives you a simple way to manage your privacy while your are browsing and searching the Internet. 

It’s a browser add-on for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera and it allows you to pay-what-you-want to support their online privacy and security efforts. 

Once the add-on is installed, all online activities become masked as it then looks like all requests are coming from the Disconnect servers, not your actual computer. 

The Disconnect add-on also shows you all of the invisible tracking requests that are occurring and makes sure you’re using encrypted connections as you share your data. 

So anyone that wants an easy to way to manage who can see personal surfing habits should look into the disconnect tool.
