Is scorecardresearch.com Safe?

Have tracking. Will block. For those users baffled for all green on urlvoid, but tracking is not considered malicious content by these security analysis sites!

Its services are via injection (in the sites of their customers or software installers) of tracking cookies, malware, toolbars, scripts, malicious code, web tracking, and other shit.

From their website: ScorecardResearch, a service of Full Circle Studies, Inc., is part of the comScore, Inc. market research community, a leading global market research effort that studies and reports on Internet trends and behavior. ScorecardResearch conducts research by collecting Internet web browsing data and then uses that data to help show how people use the Internet, what they like about it, and what they don’t. ScorecardResearch collects data through from two main sources: surveys and web tagging. For our surveys, we invite people on the Internet to provide us with anonymous demographic and Internet usage information that we can use to refine our reporting. These surveys are always voluntary, and are never used to collect personal information. For web tagging, participating websites agree to deploy a special code throughout their sites. Again, no personally identifiable information is ever transmitted by, or linked to, the web tags.
