Eclectic Technology

DuckDuckGo (a search engine that does not track you) has a new guide on how to stop getting tracked in your browser. If you are concerned about ads that follow you or cookies or other items that may be tracking you check out this post. It provides link to a variety of apps that you may want to install and will determine which browser (Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera) you are using to access the post and tell yo how to tweak setting to minimize tracking. And if you are not sure what tracking is you might want to either check out the DuckDuckGo website and look for under More (lower right hand corner) where you can learn about tracking and filter bubble, or check the TED talk that Eli Pariser did a couple of year ago on filter bubbles (http://www.ted.com/talks/eli_pariser_beware_online_filter_bubbles.html),
