Web tracking is pervasive on the internet today. Almost everyone is a victim of web tracking on the internet.
Your government, security organizations, international intelligence alliances such as the infamous Five Eyes, cyber-criminals, jealous spouses, and business competitors use cookies, spyware, malware, and other tools to carry out this act.
No one is free from web tracking; even governments are victims of web tracking deployed by another nation or agency. You get the idea.
News of whistleblowers is everywhere, and no one is free if people can track the government.
Have you ever heard of the PRISM program? It is alleged that the United States government uses it to spy on millions of people in the USA. You should also know that most of the servers of the biggest tech companies in the world reside in the United States.
Therefore, whether or not you live in the USA, your data can also be tracked through the PRISM program. Aside from the US government, other regimes also have secret programs for online tracking.
And guess what? What is the easiest way for governments and any third party to spy on you or track your web activities? The answer is internet tracking.
