Go here and read to your hearts content.

Frankly, more sites track more then they say, so this is a good thing on Googles part.

I am running Firefox Nightly with Gostery blocker. It helps get rid of trackers.

Ghostery is very good!

Better: Add BetterPrivacy to Firefox as well.

Might as well add AdBlock Plus to speed up your browsing on sites with many ads (e.g. newspaper sites).

I use the Ixquick search engine.
It's billed as "the world's most private search engine."

If you guys do some reading you'll find out a good deal of those blockers aren't going to do the trick.

I like it when I go look at something at a website, and then all my ads change to whatever I was looking it. Right now all my ads are from Backcountry.com.

www.ixquick.com

It searches Google and a bunch of other search engines simultaneously (and anonymously).
