No DEAL!
Dear Interactive Advertising Bureau,
Your DEAL is toxic for human rights. You urge sites to coerce people to stop protecting ourselves from web malware. This leaves us open to malicious ads and to the violation of our privacy through behavioural tracking.
Our response?
Open letter to Wired
Wired.com prevents you from viewing their site for protecting yourself from web malware and tracking.
As part of our No DEAL campaign, here’s our open letter to Wired, explaining why we’re blocking Wired’s blocker blocker.

The 172 trackers on just this one site costs Americans over $4M a month in mobile data charges. This makes LifeBuzz, in our view, quite possibly the worst site on the web and the recipient of our first ever Cloud of Shame Award.
Cloud of Fame
