Hi people who run mwomercs.com

I see today that adroll.com is being used by this site now. Based on https://www.mywot.co...card/adroll.com it looks bad. I'm find because I use NoScipt and can block it, but most of the others who view this site won't get that protection.

Would you guys consider removing it? I know there's probably revenue to be made there but I hope there are better sites that could make up for it.

AdRoll is a trusted advertising agency.

The tracking pixel still works even if you are using NoScript (the javascript version just offers more details). There is nothing wrong with the company, and it seems that WoT has been under some peer pressure lately. Although I respect what WoT is trying to do, it's not very trustworthy on their determinations due to the very nature of the ability to personally change listings with paid negative/positive comments rep.

Regardless of personal opinions I take every advertising pixel with seriousness and research. If I am not comfortable with their record or security then I refuse to use it before you guys even hear about it. I don't care what marketing or discussion came up, your data safety and privacy is my top priority.
