Ghostery

Is your browser feeling a little slow these days? One cause for that (besides the fact that you’re leeching the WiFi feed at Starbucks) could be the number of scripts, cookies, and other bots that track your movements across ad networks, blogging platforms, and media sites. Ghostery is a plugin for most modern browsers which allows you to shut those trackers off, block their access to your browser, and even educate you as to who is running them, what their privacy policies are, and who owns them. It’s easy to set up, and it’s already made my browser run faster.
