In reply to a post by bobble_bob:
Am i the only one that doesnt really care if they collect my browsing history? If some company wants to know my xx.xx.xx.xx IP visited x website on a certaim day/time then so be it. More importantly issues to worry about.


If that's all they collected it wouldn't be too bad, but they are also collecting more and more personal info, I was shocked at the amount of info Microsoft want to collect from you continuously after you install Windows 10!

I tried WOT but you get idiots marking down sites that are safe but they just dont like the content, so sadly WOT isnt much of a usefulness for security.

Better to lock down javascript to whitelisted only sites and do ad filtering, but try to whitelist ad's on sites you use regurly that you want to support.

Those ads usually require a user to click them though

I use Noscripts so no code can be executed on a website without me giving it permission and that naturally blocks alot of ads.

Nothing is 100% safe but following basic internet security and not clicking on things that look dodgy will prevent alot of stuff.

I run scans with Malwarebytes and Superantispyware weekly too
