ShareThis.com embed?
-
This plug-in unbeknownst to me is affiliated with ShareThis.com which I was trying to get away from due to their poor privacy standards. Futhermore it’s just extra overhead for my site to load another JS script and cookie.
Social Media Feather embeds a javascript load of:
https://ws.sharethis.com/button/st_insights.js?publisher=eba0f3ba-f9ab-408c-bc68-c28af5afe749&product=featherwhich is generating tracking cookies by ShareThis.
In the plugins source code this is wrapped inside a
if (synved_option_get(‘synved_social’, ‘accepted_sharethis_terms’)){ }
however nowhere in the settings for this plug-in can I find a place where I have
“accepted ShareThis terms” to allow this tracking.Unfortunately this is total deal killer for me, can we please get this option included in your next release so I can use your plug-in but not have ShareThis.com involved in my site, I can’t stand their privacy policy and tracking.
