I use Bitdefender “TrafficLight” anti-tracker in conjunction with built-in Safari to cross-site trackers and block fingerprinting by sites. The stats are incredible. 68% of sites contacted trackers. Google.com is the most contacted tracker and it prevented Google.com from tracking me on 201 sites the past 30 days. Other big tracker sites are imgflip (36 trackers), fox news (30), national review (28), breitbart (11), American Thinker (11). Google was seen on 201 sites, Yahoo on 82 sites, Bing on 67 sites.

They really are watching us.

NoScript does the work of them all. It blocks absolutely 100% of ALL scripts on the site including all the site elements that are JavaScript. Sometimes you have to go “allow” the one or two base scripts to use the site, but it still blocks absolutely everything else without fail.

And it has a direct connection to forward that particular script URL and do a Blacklight privacy inspection. It will show all the third and fourth parties all your data is being forwarded to.

You would be very surprised how many forward to “Alphabet”, which is of course Google as a fourth party. But they are listed by different names in the script URL.
