Web of Trust, MyWOT/WOT: Website Reputation Rating by WOT Services
Review by SandpaperWasteland
Rated 1 out of 5
by SandpaperWasteland, 7 years agoWoT's "Active Protection" actively tracks and links your IP address to what you type on search engines, your web history, then "distributes" (or sells as some websites have warned) this information directly to others.
Taken directly from their Privacy Policy: "When you install and use the WOT app or WOT extension, we also collect from you automatically... Internet Protocol Address...Search engine results page (keyword, order/index of results, link of result, title, description, ads); web pages visited and time stamp of the visit;"
This obvious breach of privacy mingled with the fact that they were caught red-handed in selling it is UNACCEPTABLE.
