January 28, 2014 By LBSzone

DoNotTrackMe, the most popular online privacy tool, reaches major milestone leading up to Data Privacy Day – user community stops more than 1 trillion attempts to track their browsing — Abine, the leader in online privacy, announces that its popular tracker-blocking tool, DoNotTrackMe, has helped its users block over 1 trillion attempts to track their browsing. This milestone highlights the massive increase of web tracking, government surveillance, and data breaches.

“Companies continue to secretly track and collect more and more data about us every day online,” said Rob Shavell, Abine co-founder and CEO. “Data breaches have become a daily reality as evidenced by Target, Neiman Marcus, Adobe, Facebook, LivingSocial, and many others. The easy way to avoid being a victim of the next big data breach is to stop giving out your personal information. DoNotTrackMe 3.0 helps you do that effortlessly.”
