How Ghostery breaks the web

Post by morganism »

interesting article on Ghostery, and how it collides with Blogger and Discus engines.

I also didn't know it was injecting info.

I pulled that extension a couple years ago....

Ghostery has a reputation for not playing well with others...

Personally, I'm more concerned about security than privacy, but I do run RequestPolicy at home, as well as Self-Destructing Cookies, so I reckon I'm pretty much set when it comes to tracking.

Religion is not the opium of the masses. Daily life is the opium of the masses.

True religion, which dares to acknowledge death and challenge the way we live, is an attempt to wake up.
