This is why I've deleted my facebook account and browse with Noscript disabling javascript (except for whitelist), RequestPolicy blocking cross-site requests (except for whitelist), and CookieMonster blocking cookies (except for whitelist). It wouldn't completely work here (e.g. EFF's panopticlick could still fairly uniquely identify me, or IP address would give away info if I'm not going through my VPN), but it improves things. It feels kind of extreme, but it's worth it to me. My experience is not broken that much, and I feel like various sites are aggregating less about me. These tracking technologies not such an issue now, but I foresee at least the possibility of abuse in the future, so I figure I'll do what I can now if it's not too much hassle. Lastly, at its heart most of this is about advertising, something I know I'm very susceptible to (try as I might to convince myself I'm not). So the better I am at blocking out these things, I think the less money I'll spend in the long run on frivolous nice-to-haves.
