privacy badger reports 22 possible trackers, 17 of which it blocked. Always funny reading these hypocritical webpages complain about privacy issues.

I also bet the author uses Android or iOS but doesn't seem to be concerned about that.

  Or perhaps he runs Cyanogenmod Android with no telemetry back to Mother? 'Bets' based on supposition are dangerous.

  I don't have a smartphone currently. I killed the screen of my Nexus 5 half a year ago and after I learned how much it would cost me to recover it (freaking LG), I abandoned the device.

Hm, let's see, I host: 1) google translation widget 2) microsoft translation widget 3) google+ button 4) AddMe widget (some people are not capable of copying the URL) 5) disqus comments 6) Google AdSense That's all. I don't know where this number (22) is coming from. Edit: 7) FlagCounter

  uBlock blocks these for me (note these are domains, so it's probably blocking more than 1 script from some of these): addthis.com, adnxs.com, bing.com, crwdcntrl.net, disqus.com, disqusads.com, doubleclick.net, exelator.com, flagcounter.com, google-analytics.com, google.com, googlesyndication.com, statcounter.com Allowing them triggers blocking another 2. addthisedge.com, adsnative.com Something focusing more on privacy would probably also pick up the 2 separate translators on the page that your already mentioned, along with pippio.com whatever that is.

    I can imagine Disqus and AddThis are abusing my page, but then I browse the web with temporary cookies so it doesn't bother me. ;-) Actually if you really value your privacy you should never have permanent cookies (and you should have browser disk cache disabled as well). Oh, and site data (another form of cookies) must be cleaned on browser shutdown as well.

  Install the privacy badger to find out. Most web designer arent really aware about all the lookups that go on behind each widget or button.
