Google And Facebook Are Quietly Tracking Visits To Porn Websites, Even Those In Incognito Mode

Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania, Carnegie Mellon and Microsoft used a tool called webXray to scan 22,484 adult-themed websites and see what kind of data they collect and where they send it to. According to the study, published in the peer-reviewed New Media and Society journal, 93 percent of those sites send out user data to third parties. On average, the sites relay user information to seven different domains, the vast majority of which are collected by tracking cookies on the site. Trackers from Google or one of its subsidiaries like advertising service DoubleClick were discovered on 74 percent of all the sites scanned. Facebook, which specifically forbids pornographic content and nudity on the platforms that it operates, was found to be tracking activity on 10 percent of all adult sites scanned.
While it may not be surprising to know there are tracking cookies and other tools on even explicit sites (if you're online, best to just assume your activity is being watched one way or another), it is considerably different than having your clicks on social media or a online retailer tracked. For better or worse, that information is useful for companies to serve up personalized advertisements and fine-tune an experience for each user. That's a practice that often makes people uncomfortable, like when ads on Facebook or Instagram are so specific to a person's interests that they start believing those apps are listening to conversations using their phone's microphone. With porn activity, there's less to be gleaned in terms of what companies can sell to a person. Instead, the information collected serves to flesh out the profile of a person in a way that might be uncomfortably revealing.
It is best to go into incognito mode before watching private videos, so as to avoid embarrassment later. In fact, some browsers, such as Yandex.Browser, will suggest it if you open a porn site. Running in incognito mode, your browser stores no cookies and no search history. Your family will see none of those treacherous suggestions in the address bar.
I recently cancelled after 3 years. I purchased a Moto x4 from them and had two warranty issues in a year. Both times they had to do an authorization hold for the full value of the phone, which is more than I even paid for it. And that's 432 bucks. If I'd had a pixel it would have been a lot more. The first time it happened they released the funds after I sent back the old phone after I got the replacement and called them with the return packages FedEx tracking. That was September. My 2nd warranty claim, I called with the tracking number, and talked to FIVE customer service agents at google that said they couldn't release the funds by verifying the tracking number. They said I had to wait for them to receive the phone and processed it. LUCKILY google got the tracking number automatically and released the funds. Even after I told google that I'm still getting customer service messages saying the phone is in transit and I'll have my funds released when they have the phone. I've had my funds four four days.I cancelled with those idiots 2b1af7f3a8
