Browsers Except Firefox Eliminating The Option To Turn Off Surveilling "Hyperlink Auditing"
Most browsers -- except Firefox and Brave -- are eliminating the option to turn off surveilling "hyperlink auditing"
(I had to shorten the title to fit it)

NOTE: Brave, the Browser I pulled from the thread title due to length is a derivative of Firefox.
Ok, so you know how you can click "Back" in your Browser? Hyperlink Auditing allows every website you have visited to be sent to each new website, so they can view your entire Back History. Naah, not intrusive at all. For example, I put a link to the source website, but that source website will be able to see that you first started at google, then googled Ron Paul Forums, then Ron Paul Forums took you to the link I posted. It also tells Google each new site once youre off of Google, even if you block Google Analytics. The biggest risk is not to you as an individual, but rather it will draw the ire of the Censors who will eventually want Ron Paul and these very forums SILENCED PERMANENTLY. Once RPF is Depersoned online, then you will be considered a Thought Criminal for trying to come here. If we have anything like China does, then your ability to renew your Drivers License may be revoked, could be fired from your job, insurance denied, etc. They CAN ruin your life because of the sites you visit.
If you are smart enough to run Firefox, its easy to check if its on:
Type about:config in your Address Bar. then find "browser.send_pings" and make sure its value is "false". This "feature" is also "old" and they now use Beacon, so I also suggest searching for "beacon.enabled" and set that to "false" also. These types of Browser Features are the things that get you Depersoned.
