Too Long; Didn't Read

Top VPN websites are tracking visitors with sometimes dangerous or privacy-unfriendly third-parties, as well as creepy session-recording scripts. These scripts record video of your movements around their websites, which also includes what you click on, what you search for, and much more. VPNpro’s research team analyzed 120 top VPN websites, and found that the situation is pretty bad when it comes to VPNs’ true commitment to privacy. The riskiest trackers include Openx, BlueKai, and Taboola.
