DoNotTrackMe for Firefox for Mac review
DoNotTrackMe for Firefox for Mac uses multiple strategies to protect your privacy while you're browsing, shopping, and communicating online. Through this program, you can stop companies from tracking your browsing activity, mask your email, and much more.
Pros
Multiple protections: There are several tools you can use within this program to protect your privacy. As soon as you install it, the app begins blocking trackers that record your activity online. By signing up for a free account, you can access Account and Email protection, which masks your email address and protects your log-in information. If you choose to upgrade to a paid account, you'll have the added benefit of masked credit cards to use when you're making purchases online, as well as masked phone numbers.
Hidden operation: This app primarily runs in the background, blocking trackers and any other items you choose while letting you continue to browse just like you would normally. But if you do need to access it for any reason, all you have to do is click the program icon located on your browser's top toolbar.
Info options: If you'd like to know more about what the program is blocking and why, you can find that through the app's main interface. There you'll see a list of companies, some of which link to pages defining what they do and why it's in your best interest to block them.
Cons
Unstoppable pop-ups: Every time you visit a new site and the app blocks one or more trackers, a small pop-up window appears in the upper right-hand corner of your browser window. While these disappear after a minute or so, there doesn't seem to be a way to turn them off entirely.
Bottom Line
DoNotTrackMe for Firefox for Mac is a good way to ensure your private information stays secure while you're working online. You can choose how much protection you want and whether you'd like to pay for any of the premium services, but even the free options offer a lot in terms of increased security and anonymity. The program installs quickly and runs smoothly, making it worth checking out.
