Keep Your Data Private — How To Opt Out Of Google Analytics
Frustrated with the lack of privacy and abuse of personal data occurring in modern day technology?
Google created a browser add-on that allows you to turn off Google Analytics ad trackers, and works for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and even Internet Explorer 11.
What Does This Plugin Mean For My Data?
By downloading the add-on, your browser will now opt-out of Google Analytics requests, meaning that you now have prevented your personal data from being collected and used by Google and its affiliates.
You most likely will still get advertisements while browsing the world wide web, however, they will be less tailored to what topics your search and browser history reflect. (Even more-so, if you clean all of your [already collected] browser history, you’ll have even less tailored ads!)
