Overview

Tells the Google Analytics JavaScript not to send information to Google Analytics.

To provide website visitors the ability to prevent their data from being collected and used by Google Analytics, we have developed the Google Analytics opt-out Browser extension for the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, dc.js). If you want to opt-out, download and install the extension for your web browser. In order to function, the opt-out extension must be able to load and execute properly on your browser. Updates to your browser or operating system may affect the functionality of the opt-out extension. More information about managing your extensions for Chrome can be found at https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/187443?hl=en. By installing this extension, you agree to the Chrome Web Store Terms of Service at https://ssl.gstatic.com/chrome/webstore/intl/en/gallery_tos.html and the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on Terms of Service at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/intl/en/eula_text.html.

Only installed it because a website forced me to accept cookies and there was no way to turn off advertising cookies etc. and just a link to this. Ridiculous! @Info Sydney Doors: "For all the nay-sayers, this app is not actually for you" — Yes, it is, allegedly. It was presented to me as an alternative to a non-existent "do not accept cookies" option. Incognito mode is incompatible with some services that require you to be logged in. Don't tell naysayers not to naysay.

I Agree with the Review from Daniel Basse - "But do you really *trust* Google to self-manage this, and truly opt you out of the thing they make their money from? Without an open source check, and requiring your acceptance from a TOS and EULA to install this plugin (which re-grants them consent again) I am deeply suspicious of Google's integrity due to the profit-motive conflict of interest here."

Ideal for web developers who don't want to include their footprint on their projects causing inaccurate data. For all the nay-sayers, this app is not actually for you so quit your whining and just go incognito mode.
