You do not want technology giants like Google and Facebook to track you online? Looks like you're out of luck. On Friday, the Federal Communications Commission USA (FCC) announced that it not strength of sites to honor "does not follow."
"Do Not Track" is a feature built into many web browsers that users can use to indicate that they do not want their online activity monitoring. Consumer Watchdog put forward in June a petition to honor these mandatory requirements. "Do not track" has already been done on a voluntary basis - and this is how it will continue
The FCC rejected the proposal stating that it means rejecting the advertising companies ,. "Tomb outside their jurisdiction." technology companies and others can continue to track users' movements around the Internet.The FCC made the following statement at dismissal:
"the Commission was unequivocal stating that he does not intend to regulate the leading vendors, "reads the order. Edge providers are companies like Microsoft and Twitter that provide services related to the Internet, but not the actual Internet connections. "We therefore find that the consumer watchdog petition clearly does not warrant consideration by the Commission."
The decision was described by Business Insider as a "win" for Silicon Valley, but is an unfortunate conclusion for advocates of privacy and those who seek to control and protect their lives private online.
There are a few ways you can continue to protect you online, even though "not detected" will not be applied. You can use a VPN to encrypt your Internet connection, which will protect your IP address, browsing history and other online communications from all snooping sites or third parties.
