Wow so you need an IP to navigate the web and every site you visit sees that IP?
Thanks for explaining what I just explained!
They were correct though, you weren't.
Which makes your cockiness that much funnier.
I'm going to educate you on what this is actually about.
You think it's about tracking someone as they go about the web.
The article is about BLUE SKY tracking the links you click on their site. Two totally different things.
I host a page, you load the page and it has 5 links on it. You can click on any, all or none of the links and my server would have no knowledge of it because after the page has loaded that's our communication finished. All my server can log is that you loaded the page with the links on it and they were sent to you. What you do with that is up to you.
JS or manipulating the links would allow me to track which ones you have clicked.
