trackbuster

[shankle]

This program is supposed to stop Email tracking.
They say it works with Gmail.
They also say that it is still being developed.
Not that I have anything to hide but IT'S my paid for computer and
NOBODY has any business inserting their crap in my machine.
I read all my Email Sandboxed so I wonder if it really makes any difference?

Does anyone have any experience with this product??

I have decided against using this product.
I am not familiar with this company and what they say and what they do
are two different things.
Since I am using Sandboxie when on line, I am probably safe anyway.

you may misunderstand the purpose of this product
not that i have used it or anything, but i understand what it's intended use is

tracking is not the same as malware, per se
it's more about google, e-mail service providers, etc, etc, using your history as marketing data fodder
they want to know how consumers use their computer
where you shop, what you buy, what sites you visit, what ads you see, and so on
they want to know how people use the internet to better target advertisement

this kind of data is sold to marketing companies, probably for a good price
companies like google collect information and sell it
i say google, because they're probably one of the biggest collectors of tracking-data
