Many companies use traffic analysis to track which sites users are visiting and for what purpose. This is done in order to display ads for products and services similar to those viewed by the user on the sites in the future. Or to perform more dangerous actions. To protect your anonymity when visiting the Internet, use special browsers, such as Tor Browser, which can hide the location and IP-address of the device that was used to access the network.
