Vincent Bernat writes in his blog about recent steps he took to increase privacy for his visitors and efficiency for the blog. He started out with excluding privacy-hostile modifications like Google Analytics, Disqus, third-party fonts, and much more. After reflection, he pared back and found the results better all around.

He addresses the following technologies one by one:

  • Analytics
  • Fonts
  • Videos
  • Comments
  • Search engine
  • Newsletter
  • Java­Script
  • Memento: CSP

    THIS MAN HAS STOLEN MY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

    WHILE I"VE GOT YOUR ATTENTION IT IS CRUCIALLY IMPORTANT TO ADD THE FOLLOWING TWO LINKS TO YOUR HOSTS FILE:

    127.0.0.1 WWW.GOOGLE-ANALYTICS.COM
    127.0.0.1 SSL.GOOGLE-ANALYTICS.COM

    IF YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT A HOSTS FILE IS ASK SOMEONE WHO IS REALLY INTO YOUR COMPUTERS.
