Long ago I bought one of their magazines. Now I still read their website sometimes- but I really wish it was better. There is lots and lots of good content to like- but there also are issues:The number of trackers and ads attempting to run in the background is shocking.They do lots of product reviews- with affiliate links- in other words: Are they reviewers or generating sales leads and commissions?

There was 14 tracking services watching your every move on this site, but now it is up to 17. While the site does have pretty good news articles, they don't care a bit about your privacy.

AdBlock apparently blocked 14 ads on a single page from this site, seems suspicious.

Not pleased with the number of tracking/cookies you get infested with when visiting the site. Articles range from informative/useful to goofy/idiotic - be careful to vet anything you think you might rely on. I really enjoyed reading much of it - just not trusting much of it.

Another extremely slow to load site/page due to junk= cookies & tracking crapware.

Reviews and articles appear to be bribed. They don't stop favoring Microsoft and killing opensource for no reason.
7
A tech site with privacy articles handing your information out multiple times does not make a privacy honoring site.

Scripts for 6 tracking/advertising companies (per NoScript). Good privacy? Trustworthy? See *****
