FR isn’t “tracked” per se. The contents are copied to Google’s farm for caching purposes. So yes, while our posts are saved “forever,” the addresses from which we posted are not. That’s the point of DNS.

Google Analytics are called at the browser layer. If you’re not blocking Google analytics, you’re allowing the code in the page to act as a proxy for your browsing habits. I highly recommend you install a script blocking extension (e.g. NoScript) and prohibit Google (anything) at every level of your browser’s capability. They’re a virus, IMO.
