Networks and Tools for Encryption

Before Xin Xin talked about the power that Facebook has over our private information and data, I wasn’t aware of the influence that big corporations such as Facebook and Google, had over the knowledge and media that we are seeing. Since they have access to our private information, they are able to track ads and online sources that we maybe interested in. I think I will continue to use the tool such as Https Everywhere and Privacy Badger to protect myself from trackers that may use my cookies to send me ads or have access to my private information.
