If you want to block trackers (including Google), you should use Ghostery. Available for all major web browsers (IE, Opera, Safari, Firefox).
You'd be surprised just how many outfits track you everywhere.
On Firefox, I also like NoScript and AdBlock Plus externsions. And I use the BetterPrivacy extension to control the use of Adobe supercookies (which can be used to track you everywhere, no matter your privacy settings).
You really have to be a little paranoid to even cover your tracks to a limited extent.
i saw one of those weird google vehicles a few months ago that films everything. it was interesting to see it in action, and i took some video of it. i will post it sometime. its amazing how they have photos of just about everyplace in the world. up close. sort of creepy.
"Even to the death fight for truth, and the LORD your God will battle for you".Sirach 4:28
The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
