> can't GA still spy on you even > if javascript is disabled? I don't think so. GA consists of JS code that the site owner adds to each web page on which they want to track you. When exectuted it can get information about you and load additional JS, but without JS enabled in your browser the initial code will never get exectuted in the first place. I expect that disabling JS similarly prevents you from being tracked by "like on Facebook/Instagram" buttons. However, the majority of people are unaware of what JS really even is, let alone why it is unwise to have it enabled, so they will fall victim to any site owner who chooses to take advantage of them this way.
