Internet privacy bill passed

What are your thoughts, how are sites like TER, ECCIE, P411 proceed, and what it means for sites like these?

The fact that ECCIE finally moved to HTTPS helps, as intermediaries can no longer snoop the traffic as it is encrypted. Your ISP will know where you are going (unavoidable, unless you use a web proxy or anonymizer like TOR), but not what is in the communications.

Generally, I would recommend as a minimum to run your browser in Private/Incognito mode. This will throw away cookies and browser history at the end of each browsing session, minimizing tracking effects across sessions.

Individual rights sold to big business. Another disgusting example of lobbyists and money in congressional coffers. The excuses they make for it are so asinine.

Screwing the public yet again.

just get yourself a VPN (Virtual Private Network) and no one will know where you've been or what you've done.. it's the pre-requisite for not being tracked, or the questions you ask.

Google, Facebook, et al have much deeper knowledge of you/us than the ISPs since they ride inside the browser. That let's them see even HTTPS traffic in the clear, along with cookies and other browser data.
