Does accepting "all cookies" put your privacy and access to your accounts at risk without you even realizing it?
I'll show you what really happens every time you visit a website and how to stop it.
You'll learn what cookies and third-party cookies are, why some media outlets coerce you with cookie paywalls, and how hundreds of companies track you without you even noticing. You'll see real-life cases (historic fines, the Target case) and understand how cookie theft allows access to accounts without a password or 2FA. Finally, I'll give you a clear 4-step plan to protect yourself: configure your browser properly, use privacy extensions, regularly delete cookies, and log out of critical sessions, as well as reject intrusive ones.
It's important right now: commercial tracking and cookie theft are on the rise, and your online privacy depends on simple choices you can make today. This video is for you if you're looking for easy online privacy.
