I'm sure the Stasi will appreciate the identifier as well.

Windows 8 will never boot on any machine in my home. Nor will there ever be one of the new xBoxes.

I wouldn't doubt that they ordered it.

In Firefox, I run

DoNotTrackMe
https://www.abine.com/dntdetail.php

Disconnect.me
https://disconnect.me/

Ghostery
https://www.ghostery.com/

They each do similar blocking of tracking cookies, but they each seem to have unique features/blocking.

My Gmail account keeps asking for my phone number to improve “security”. I’ve toyed with attaching all my google accounts to a trakfone. No way I’ll EVER tie them to my real phone.

MAJOR Corporations have already written employees, saying THEY WILL NOT BE DEPLOYING WINDOWS 8!!!

The unstated reason is CYBER-SECURITY.

Aren't they already doing that? The ads I get are definitely a response to things I've researched. It's kind of creepy how stuff I've considered purchasing keeps following me.

The exception to that seems to be Amazon. The stuff I look up on Amazon only follows me on Amazon and in emails from them.

Threaten ?

It’s not a threat, it’s a cost saving plan. Eliminate cookies and replace them with a uniform tracking ID that works and is exchanged cross platform automatically.

This will fit in nicely with the latest login security concepts where your ‘profile’ is recognized by hardware/software that’s already commonly available on the XBOX KINNECT. Your VISUAL PROFILE is recognized and then linked to a cloud based cookie jar that has your name on it.

Ain’t it kool ?

What they really mean is an end to blocking cookies.

Figures.

That's the really scary thing. But, I rather think they already have me tracked by device urls anyway, at home, work or mobile.
