Wauw... I love this addon, indispensable for anyone wanting an ounce of privacy. anno 2011 virtually EVERY site has Cross Links*, and most of them to google! even the most inconspicuous blogs or friend's homepages.
* had to open about 50 sites before i found one without cross links!
Note: Most pages work fine without cross links. The sites (eg. site.com) that need cross links usually have an site.img.com site.media.com etc. domain to store their images or media. Just choose Allow -domain- from the dropdown menu when you click the red flag... And the site works every consecutive time you load it.
I understand website publishers would like statistics on who's visiting their pages and that google provided this service for free. But my golly! Did no-one think of the consequences of google knowing each and every ip adres browsing habit all over the globe? Even when buying an airticket on klm.com or reading newssites, google knows where you are! with request policy, I'm back in control of what companies harvest which sites i visit.
