Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!

I turned off NoScript an went to the website, and Better Privacy showed Flash tracking cookies.

What I learned from this is that NoScript blocks Flash Tracking cookies, because Better Privacy showed no tracking cookies, until I turned off NoScript.
