Amogh Talpallikar (ID: 0000001a88467a4b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/24/2015 Couple of days back I realised that there are trackers sent by various services in via emails in form of various media. They track information like whether one has viewed the email or not. They also know how many times an email was read and using what browser and devices. I was looking for some tool that could just block these trackers and I found this. Although it doesn't support all possible trackers but works most of the times for me. and since it is the only thing available and a good one at that, I love it.
