The web browser that I use is Water fox, another version of Fire fox and has the so called do not track features as well. I get searching on sites like you tube or google that your search history is picked over, but a obscure post that is getting to another level. I have a all in one app that is supposed to among other things also clear out your search history. Got to be careful with that app cause if you tick all the boxes you clear out every thing as in pass words the lot.

and up pops a radio add from Maroochydore...
The first time was like WTF?!?

The newer boat gps/sounders now have wifi and internet connectivity so our marks and tracks are probably not so secret anymore.
Rarely do more non aulro searches lead to ads. Usually searching for records on discogs or aquarium sites. Most common pop ups are for real estate sites . Not planning on buying or selling atm , so totally useless.
But they know, my friend, they know, before you do!Quote:

I was watching that "Pinegap" programme and it showed how they could turn on the microphone on any mobile phone, I knew this was possible, but thought they had to have physical access to load an app, etc on to it. Now I see my anti-virus company, is offering protection against mic's and cameras being turned on remotely.

Why do they carry on with geo-location content blocking when its so easy to defeat ?? And is this show so sensitive that its not suitable for an American audience.
