Website trackers

[BjornF16]

Should I be worried about these trackers from Rokslide forum website?

Use "Brave" as your web Browser and Duck Duck Go are your search engine. I have 16 trackers/ads or others blocked on this page right now, using Brave.

"Big Brother" is always watching.

Brave is great - us it on phones and computers. They’ve also got their own search engine that from I’ve read is better than duck duck go.

I'm using MacOS Safari in Private mode...google is a dirty word in my household. I use DuckDuckGo

Reason it caught my attention yesterday was because Rokslide website appeared frozen on me. No other website had that issue at that time. Once I closed the tab and re-opened, all was well. That is when I noticed the Privacy Report.

Didn’t Microsoft buy DuckDuckGo in 2022? I wouldn’t trust it anymore than Google now, given its new owners.

I don’t see anything about Microsoft buying DuckDuckGo, but I found this article

Ah, maybe it was related to Microsoft ads/tracking. I don't use DDG, I just remember seeing the news articles come out a couple years ago.
