Glad to have Do Not Track Plus & Abine TACO in Chrome

Hi forum friends,

Secret privacy tracking of your website browsing is becoming more and more of an issue. The Do Not Track Plus extension in GoogleChrome already blocked 3000 tracking items during a couple of days. Social button tracking, ad networks tracking, and company tracking is being blocked. Albine TACO will let you opt out of advertising networks. Nice to have these extensions alongside AdBlock Plus.
The privacy score of our forum site here is 80, because of the tracking by -http://static.avast.com/shared/j/s_code.js.
Well I like both mentioned extensions, just wanted to let you know,

Well, it's a good thing the source is neat and easy to understand compared to sites that try to hide it by making it all on 1 line and no comments.

80 is still good. It's not like we're in the 50s.


I'd like to know what the 'scrambled' script does.

I have been checking on what is being blocked, but somehow this was not shown on Do Not Track Plus or with another company name: htxp://admin.brightcove.com/js/BrightcoveExperiences_all.js
While Ghostery mentions and analyzes it: hxtp://www.ghostery.com/gcache/?n=QnJpZ2h0Y292ZQ%3D%3D&s=aHR0cDovL2FkbWluLmJyaWdodGNvdmUuY29tL2pzL0JyaWdodGNvdmVFeHBlcmllbmNlc19hbGwuanM%3D
Also read from here: hxtp://blog.privacychoice.org/2010/11/17/are-privacy-add-ons-effective-surprising-results-from-our-testing/ (sort of praying to their choir there)
Here we have their full index: htxp://www.privacychoice.org/companies/all
What is missed out I can get eventually via the "Blocker" extension in GoogleChrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/epdedalbkhcbhcmcpfglmhngjpgimcmm
This extension can be used as a full element blocker,

I tried this addon a lot of times and its a good addon indeed but Ghostery seems to block more than Abine.
