13. In addition, Safari offers many Add-ons to protect user privacy.
Here are some of the most popular Add-ons, which you can
download straight from their websites.
• Ghostery blocks the invisible tracking cookies and plug-ins on many web
sites, shows it all to you, and then gives you the choice whether you want to
block them one-by-one, or all together.
• Adblock Plus stops social networking sites from transmitting data about
you after you leave those sites, even if the page you visit has a social plugin
on it.
• Do Not Track Plus is the Do Not Track app that sends a request to
websites not to track you, with a “plus” of also stopping third-party data
exchanges. So, when you visit a site with Facebook, Twitter and Google+
buttons on it, your browser will tell the network that you're on a site with
those buttons, and no information will be sent until you choose to click one.
