Hundreds of companies unlawfully collect data about the things you do online, such as the websites you visit, the pages you view, searches you make, and the links you click. By collecting this information across multiple websites, they can build very detailed profiles about you that can include sensitive data. This includes your interests, location, health, sexual preference, income and political affiliations.
This is not just creepy: it is often illegal and harmful. The majority of these tracking businesses do not give you any real choice about the collection and transmission of your online activities. This data and the profiles created from it isn’t only used to show you relevant ads, but leads to discrimination, the spread of misinformation, and political manipulation.
Yes. The Datagator browser extension is free to use.
