Accidentally clicked ad for NetScout.

Hmmm.... maybe it goes to a promotions page that they no longer use.

Easy solution - right click -> block element -> PROFIT!

Kids decided that it was bath time. They are so goofy. They will fight taking a bath. But then refuse to ever get out of one.

Out getting my hair cut.

If everyone did that, then this site may not continue to exist. :slight_smile:

Well.... all ads should be killed with fire, but even I usually leave the bottom ads here because they are below where I scroll. If they were more visible, they would get totally nuked (like the annoying sidebar ads). And since there is no such animal as a good ad blocker for Android, my mobile version of ML is ad-tastic.

I don't mind ads that don't track me... static images along are fine.. sites need to make money..
but tracking is where I draw the line!

All plain PNGs here. Except the new ones, those are JPGs by accident. Getting those fixed shortly.

Well that may be true - but this site still has TONS of tracking on it.. uBlock counter is over 800 right now.

That counter rarely resets if I remember correctly. I use Privacy Badger right now, and it's only showing 16.

I wonder where the Gravatar one is coming from.
-
I've got Gravatar here as well, it's always been here since the before time when it was being used for avatars.
-
Any idea where DoubleClick is coming from? There is no DoubleClick here.

Sure, it doesn't go down, but is normally going up up up..

I've had the same 3 things under ghostery for quite some time. Never wondered about its origin, I just let it block stuff until it breaks a page.

But if it is scanning basic things like Google, and it increments with every load, of course it is going to appear high.

But counting Google over and over again is misleading.

What is google doing if not tracking?
But is it tracking YOU or just collecting site info? What do you classify as tracking?
