Collusion
Holy crap, this web addon for Firefox is AWESOME! It lets you track which websites are monitoring your personal data and browsing data so you can opt out if you want.
So I did a little experiment for the morning to see what websites talk to each other.
This is the way all the websites I've ever used share information about me.
MFP talks to Facebook (Even if you arent logged in) which shares information with Punishtube and komonews which shares with Crakmedia --> Slutload --> Heaven666 --> LiveJasmin --> efukt --> doubleclicknet --> Kiro7 -->. The WHOLE WEB is connected! They all talk to each other!
So badass, but I feel a little violated too...
Oh, on a side note, this was done for EXPERIMENTAL purposes only. Don't judge me. I'd never go to those places on my own of course.
**EDIT** I feel I should add, this post is not JUST a joke. Collusion actually does let you track who is sharing your personal information so you can opt out of it.

No judgement and good to know........personally if it were me and I had that moment of clarity, I'd want to find out for myself.........just for my own personal reasons as much as proffessional ones as well. You know that when you go for a job, they look at Facebook........why not sites like those too? Could be damaging.......so props.0
