And the host here and on nearly every major website in the world makes it easy for them.
Every page here runs a google-analytics Java'spy bot'... a 'freebie' given to website designers to give them free statistical analysis of their visitors.... But if you allow it to run on your browser, it tracks your every mouse move, your every keyboard stroke, how long you spent on the page, etc. And that information is just for the webmaster, but sold to anyone with the money and interest to rent the info from Google. And, I assume, given to the NSA- CIA-FBI.
At least at FR, you don't HAVE to allow the spy-bot to run. More and more websites are not allowing you to see anything but a blank page unless you let the google crap run.
I recently ended a ~30 year $2,000 to $10,000 a year relationship with a firearms related business (Midway) because they are one of those who will now show you nothing but a blank page unless you let several Google 'Bots' run.
And google analytics is only a small part of the potential google spy stuff... I have seen websites that have more than fifty google java apps /scripts run on every page.
Firefox (and some clone browsers) users can install the 'No-Script' add-on and somewhat protect themselves.
How can you tell what is running?
(I think I read that the newest versions of firefox do not allow NoScript to work, which is why I haven't updated from FF 51.00.01)
If you use the Brave browser, click on the little orange lion face in the upper right corner, disable scripts, ads, cookies etc, and it will tell you what it has blocked.
I have no idea of what you can do with other browsers to protect yourself.

"And that information is just for the webmaster....",
Should read:
And that information is NOT just for the webmaster,
Yes, I have somebody who pestered me over LinkedIn too. Like you, I ignored all of it.
His claim was that it “made me real” - puhleeze.
LOL - good one and definitely not too far off
Thanks!
Yep - Well, the folks I worked with were highly-educated, and completely clueless about some things of the world.
It was a liberal bubble a lot of them lived in.
Yes he will.
Remember Valerie Jarrett and Barack Obama’s “database” comment?
She said there’d be Hell to pay.
Hrrrmpff. She ain’t seen nothing yet.
My guess is she won’t change and then she’ll find out the irony of her statement.
Hey, Valerie Jarret - John 3:17-18 King James Version, Bible.
Zuckerberg is the “face” of Facebook. It is owned and operated by the government. Actually a brilliant idea. People wouldn’t go on a government website and volunteer all kinds of personal info. But If it’s social media....
I was called a *stupid POS”, on Facebook, several years ago when I said I believed Facebook was the government spying on people.
Yes.. I clicked on Your Link!
Did That action create a ripple
In the Deep State?
No Doubt!
yep...what’s there’s is there’s what’s mine is there’s!
Maxine Waters: “Obama Has Put In Place” Secret Database With “Everything On Everyone” (Video)
Jim Hoft Jun 9th, 2013 12:37 pm
We were warned–
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) told Roland Martin in a February interview,
“Obama has put in place the kind of database… will have everything on every individual.”
Before It’s News has the transcript:
“The President has put in place an organization with the kind of database that no one has ever seen before in life,” Representative Maxine Waters told Roland Martin on Monday.
“That’s going to be very, very powerful,” Waters said. “That database will have information about everything on every individual on ways that it’s never been done before and whoever runs for President on the Democratic ticket has to deal with that. They’re going to go down with that database and the concerns of those people because they can’t get around it. And he’s [President Obama] been very smart. It’s very powerful what he’s leaving in place.”
As it has been said by analysts, both Google and Facebook make much more money than their business model would permit.
They are taking home money from governments who want the information on citizens in nice packets. All ready to use.
