Visit page: http://lesswrong.com/lw/1to/what_is_bayesianism/ It has three tracking attempts by 3rd party:

dev.visualwebsiteoptimizer.com 1 request google-analytics.com 1 request b.scorecardresearch.com 1 request

It seems that tools you are using come with a hidden price serving those 3rd parties

Hi, these tools are on the site deliberately as each provides a useful function for us and/or the owners of the site. If they bother you, you can use a tool like https://www.ghostery.com/en/ to block them.
