Actually it was mentioned in the post: "I told Julie it had to be something terrible. I mean, a car company? We’d run reports on the launches of new vehicles, lots of them. They never looked like this."

So they knew it wasn't about a new car model, but some negative event.

Have you ever seen hotjar, inspectlet, mouseflow and many other service? I mean check out the demo page on the inspectlet site, type in your email address, check the recording and tell me they don't store it in plain text.

Ads in some context are okay. People who use adblockers wouldn't click on your ads even if they'd see them. But tracking is a completely different thing and much more serious. And most of the time I don't even have a choice, the website just tracks everything about me with no way of turning it off.

I completely agree with you. Not to mention the current trend(?) with solutions like hotjar or inspectlet where the whole html is sent to their servers with realtime cursor position, click and scroll information. This is really disturbing. And I guess 99% of the visitors don't even know that they are being tracked.

This is why I read about one or two random thing every day. Of course reading is not doing, but it's better than not knowing.

Is this for someone who finished the Stripe ctf last year? I think it is pretty much covered all the stuff what is offered in this course. By the way, in Hungary $1500 is about two months of payment, if you are a simple dev (in most places), so I don't know if it is really worth it, if you don't want to move to another country to work later. So I guess this is not for everyone.
