In a blog post, Twitter announced that they’re “experimenting with new ways of targeting ads,” by planning to track you around the web, even when you leave Twitter. They will then relay that information to advertisers to craft better adverts. But don’t panic.

First up, Twitter are being upfront and honest. Of course you may think that doesn’t make any difference. But have no fear, there is a solution. First, you will need to use a desktop pc, and log into twitter and visit your accounts settings page.

Then –

-Uncheck the box that says “Tailor Twitter based on my recent website visits.”
-Uncheck the box that says “Tailor ads based on information shared by ad partners.”
-Scroll down and click “Save Changes.”

You are no safe from 24/7 tracking.
