[uylug-varios] ¿Cómo se "cruza" la información en línea mientras navegás?

[Gabriel Menini]

Justamente ayer me llegó un mail de Mozilla anunciando LightBeam.

Copio aquí el correo, porque es interesante ver cómo promocionan ese add-on
y el tema de la privacidad:

Hi Gabriel,
>
> As revelations about government surveillance continue to stun people
> around the world, I'm reminded of why I joined Mozilla three years ago as
> privacy and public policy lead.
>
> In the midst of massive investments in tracking and mining of user data,
> here was a group of people fiercely committed to making individual control
> part of the Web. Today, Mozilla is still proudly non-profit, and we still
> believe privacy and security are fundamental principles of the Internet
> that cannot be ignored.
>
> But we don't just talk a good game, we build the tools that make a
> difference. And because you are a Mozilla supporter, I want you to be among
> the first to know about our latest free tool called Lightbeam for Firefox.
>
> We built Lightbeam to shine a spotlight on online data tracking to help
> people understand the Web. After you download and install the Lightbeam
> add-on to Firefox, it creates a real-time visualization of the websites you
> visit and all the third parties active on those sites. As you browse from
> site to site you can watch the visualization grow. You can also share your
> Lightbeam data with Mozilla and better inform a global dialog on the
> prevalence of tracking.
>
> We build tools like Lightbeam because we believe that everyone should
> understand and be in control of their user data and privacy. Privacy is
> what lets us trust that our laptops — and phones, apps and services — are
> truly ours and not working against us.
>
> Like you, I believe that the Web and our privacy and security are worth
> fighting for. I joined Mozilla because I wanted to be a part of a community
> of people working to build the Web we need — and fighting to protect the
> Web we love. Join the fight! Together we can collectively pull back the
> curtains on the Web and shine a light on how we’re being tracked online.
>
> Thanks for all you do to support our work.
