Tracking Protection is here!
When you’re happily surfing the web, you’re often unknowingly sharing information about yourself. Just beneath the surface, third party trackers gather, store and sell information they learn about you.
The launch of Firefox 42 comes with the new Private Browsing with Tracking Protection. It gives YOU control over the data you share by stopping third party trackers from following you online. Keep your personal data to yourself. Share this exciting launch with friends and family!
C/P this and share on Facebook or Twitter: “Wow! Private Browsing with Tracking Protection is here to stop third party trackers from following you online: http://mzl.la/fsatp”

How do you protect your personal information? What other privacy resources are out there? And most importantly, how do you teach this to students at your school? Be the educator and help people take control of the Web!
Ask any program related questions in this etherpad. We’ll be answering them during Office Hour! RSVP to the event here.
