Ask.com To Offer New Privacy Tool


The guys that made our favorite advertising campaign earlier this year are now onto something again but this time we are not going to scratch our head over what it means. Ask.com has announced AskEraser a privacy tool that lets you choose if you want the to store data from your searches or if you want to remain an anonymous ghost.

Jim Lazone, Ask.com CEO:
AskEraser is a great solution for those looking for an additional level of privacy when they search online. Anonymous user data can be very useful to enhance search products for all users, and we’re committed to being open and transparent about how such information is used. But we also understand that there are some who are interested in new tools that will help protect their privacy further, and we will give them that control on Ask.com.

The only ones scratching their head now is Google thinking on how they are going to respond to this , I guess this is just a bad week for them.
