Description

A browser extension to share data about your social feed with researchers and journalists to increase transparency.

This tool allows you to contribute data about the ads you're shown to further the understanding of researchers, journalists, and the public of online political advertising and how personal data is used to target you with ads.

Ad Observer is offered by the Online Political Transparency Project of New York University. This extension was developed in partnership with the Algorithmic Transparency Institute.

I am the weird one always reading T&C and tick off all the box to NO DON'T SAVE ANYTHING but it always annoys me they can collect and use if they want. Thank you so much and I strongly support your research!

Andrew Ronding

Very good idea, looking forward to what they discover.

I'm giving you a review to ask a question, since I can't find another way of doing it within the store. Of course, the amount of stars reflect how I feel at the moment about the extension. So here's the question: Will it work if I have Ublock Origin installed? Will you still see what you'd like to see?
