Remember, they willingly give up data to "fight terror" and for other undisclosed "noble" reasons. Has anyone actually read some of their privacy policies.... grab your tin foil hat....SPOOKY! :) Bluetack has specific Microsoft and Google blocklists available but it makes web surfing painful with them enabled although it's smoother in Linux vs Windows. @rruben – when one company can track ~90% of ALL internet sites there is always an issue of privacy.

I can see in which city a visitor lives, but you just can't link it to a person. Especially if you have a lot of visitors they are just flat statistics, nothing more. So I don't see any problems in gathering these stats. I use google analytics and adsense too and I can’t find any privacy problems.
