Open Adult Sites in Incognito, Is it Safe?
You could say it’s useless if you open the site porn via fashion Incognito. The reason is Facebook, Google and Oracle can still peek at every user activity that opens adult sites, even though they use secret mode in the browser or known as mode Incognito.
This fact was revealed through a study conducted by researchers from Microsoft, Carneige Mellon University and the University of Pannsylavania.
It’s Not Safe To Open Adult Sites With Incognito Mode
They also analyzed 22,484 porn sites which found a lot of user data being shared at least to third-party domains, including Facebook and Google.
So, it’s useless to use a browser incognito. Because every search history will be stored in the browser, and the user’s data will go to third parties.
According to research results, 95% of pages identified on pornographic sites share user data with third parties. Researchers use a software open source named wbXray which can detect and also leak various user data to third parties.
Google, which includes an advertising platform under the auspices of DoubleClick, is considered to have tracked 74% of pornographic sites.
While the software company Oracle tracks 24% of pornographic sites, Facebook, which is known as a platform that prohibits all adult content on its service, tracks 10% of pornographic sites.
According to the results of the study it was also found that only 17% of 22,484 porn sites had encryption. This means that there are still many porn sites that do not provide encryption, thus making stored user data easy to hack.
All of this seems natural
The tracking carried out on this website according to him is a natural thing. User data collected is used as a modal for user profiling. Where later will be used to target ads.
Like Google Analytics, they always track data traffic to their site so they can monitor the activity of each user while browsing.
Then, Facebook is also currently being highlighted regarding the use of personal data in the past with the ‘Like’ button as a data tracker. This data is used by social media to personalize content for users.
However, as Dafunda Tekno quoted from Business Insider, Google and Facebook denied the question of user data being used for marketing needs.
We never give Google Ads permission to contain adult content and we also prohibit personalizing ads and profiling ads from users’ sexual interests or other online activities.
