I downloaded Lightbeam for Firefox and opened up two sites, Drudge Report and TigerDroppings. This is what Lightbeam reported.....138 third party sites. I've not browsed, just opened them and ran Lightbeam.

It means I'm being tracked by 138 sites to watch my activity. It's even more once you start browsing.

That's a link graph. All those nodes coming from TD and Drudge are sites that have a relationship plus basically a VIN representation of the common relationships

Hypothetical question: can they see me touching myself?

Is that a bad thing? If so, how do I stop it?
