Do you really know what is going on with coding behind the scenes when you search online? Do you find it odd that you can use a search engine for things like “kids shoes” or “rental cars” and then you move on to another site which conveniently shows ads with items you just searched for?

While recently searching for cool graduation gift ideas for my daughter, one of the infamous search engines easily provided me with dozens of links to pages that offer not only gift ideas, but graduation announcements, clothing and more. As thankful as I am to have found what I was looking for, I completed my searches and moved onto some of the regular sites that I visit, including Facebook. Much to my surprise, these sites were starting to show advertisement for the things I had just finished searching for. Well, I have learned that is because each click, each search and visit to a site has hidden “ad tracks” in them that notify major brands and corporations of my searches and then make their products more “visible” on sites that I visit well after I have finished searching or shopping.

To be honest, this can get annoying at times. If I have found what I am looking for, I don’t need to be inundated with these same types of ads for days on end. This got me thinking, if companies are tracking what I may be shopping for or searching where to dine out, what else are they watching me do?

Technology has become something that we not only need, but rely on daily. From phones, computers, tablets and more, nearly everyone I know has what I call the “cellphone grasp”. That is, they constantly have their hands cradling their phone and their heads down, as they search, game, chat and who knows what else.

Now that I have become more informed, I wanted to share with you F-Secure Freedome!
