- #5 IP addresses alone track where you live and who your ISP is. An IP address can be obtained from any website.This anonymous profile created by the trackers watch what website you go to and assumes whether you have a bad credit score which can lead to the denial of a new credit card.All the advertisements that come out of online tracking doesn’t give you the opportunity to control what you want to see or are interested in.http://blog.thepitagroup.com/2012/the-good-and-bad-of-online-tracking/http://www.itworld.com/it-managementstrategy/250828/so-how-bad-online-tracking?page=0,0This link shows a man being profiled.
