Why is this dangerous?

There is no such thing as safe adware. And the parasite behind the Clknsee.com ads is not an exception. This adware opens your browser to surveillance and targeted ads. The parasite spies on you from day one. It studies your browsing habits and uses the collected information for targeted ads. On paper, if you enter “sneakers” into a search engine, the adware should display adverts for sports shoes. In practice, though, it floods you with countless questionable ads for sports gear. The ad targeting is not a new concept. When the service is provided by a parasite, however, there are potential risks. Bear in mind that the collected information is not confidential. Anyone willing to pay can use it to target you. What’s worse, the adware has no filters nor security mechanisms. The crooks are free to spread deceptive and false ads.
