I use Tor for anything I need privacy with. Would you recommend people use services like that all the time?

However this is not a new issue and never been, although companies like http://www.bluecava.com/ have almost perfected the art of tracking, and yes with some of the techniques mentioned here as well. If you do a Google search on “You Have Zero Privacy Anyway. Get Over It” you will find many articles and stories related to concerns about online privacy.

Take some time to visit website dedicated to dogs if you hate them, try to find a good fly to go to australia even if you are afraid of planes and so on. If the info collected has no sense it will loose its value.

They maybe heard of “disconnect” they install it and they think they’re safe.

Even if you’ve got nothing to hide and don’t mind being spied, knowing how much of your life is exposed to the public is a bit terrifying.

As soon as a browser extension is released to fix this problem, I’ll install it at once.

Thanks for the info, Marco. Continua così. :)
