try out some new frontpage... Roger Dingledine authored 19 years ago	49) Traffic analysis is used every day by companies, governments, and 50) individuals who want to keep track of where people and organizations go 51) and what they do on the Internet. Instead of looking at the content of 52) your communications, traffic analysis tracks where they go. For example, 53) online advertising company Doubleclick uses traffic analysis to record 54) what webpages you've visited, and can build a profile of your interests 55) from that. A pharmaceutical company could use traffic analysis to monitor 56) when the research wing of a competitor visits its website, and track 57) what pages or products the competitor is interested in. IBM hosts a 58) searchable patent index, and it could keep a list of every query your 59) company makes. A stalker could use traffic analysis to learn whether 60) you're in a certain Internet cafe.
