Comment Ghostery for FF (Score 3, Interesting) 290
As for third party cookies: I use Ghostery on Firefox and it works pretty well and it's pretty unobtrusive once configured. It's amazing to see how many of these cookies are used and abused. Some sites have literally dozens of them. (./ has two: Google analytics and Addthis). FB and Twitter are major culprits, they have no business tracking me when I'm visiting some other site, I'm not one of their users and I don't give a sh`t about what they do.
I support this legislation, we just don't know how much user data these companies are gathering and for what use so it's basically saying that you cannot track people that doesn't want to be tracked.
