While the advice here is quite solid, when I went to figure out what their favicon was doing(it had partial transparency, apparently due to downscaling blending opaque and transparent parts), the first thing I saw was a big block of code that appeared to enable tracking by Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Linkedin. (It was a sharrre function with enableTracking set to true on each).
Not entirely relevant, yet considering the topic of the site it's a tad ironic, and a reminder of the prevalence of sites complicit in the tracking they advocate against.
- crtasm 8y agoYep, they're using a jquery plugin called Sharrre to add social media buttons and have overridden its default off setting for "enableTracking - allows tracking social interaction with Google Analytics".
