Last week, Computer Committee Chair Joe Bruno sent an interesting article on guarding your browser (you know, the thing you search the web with). This week, he’s come through again with an article on web trackers: those sometimes nefarious folks who suck in your data as you happily watch an old rerun of “I Love Lucy,” search Amazon for the doll your 8-year-old granddaughter wants for her birthday, or laugh at the cartoon your niece posted on Facebook—and there are scads of other trackers, too.
Joe noted, in particular, that the article is from Malwarebytes “which pushes their program.” He added that he likes Malwarebytes. Many of us use it and like it, as well. However, even if you don’t go the Malwarebytes route, there are plenty of good other suggestions there. Furthermore, the article is so informative, that you are definitely in the territory of “fore-warned is fore-armed.”
If you have further questions, either call Joe or staff member Anthony Bradford, both supreme experts on the wild and sometimes wonderful world of computers. Click below to read the article.
