Popular Websites Are Recording Your Every Move

482 of the Alexa top 50,000 sites are recording their users’ every moves, keystrokes and mouse movements. This data is then sent to an analytics dashboard, not all times in a secure manner. An attacker could intercept this data in transit, or steal it from unsecured analytics dashboards to extract sensitive information.
