Shine a light on who?s watching you.

Lightbeam is a Firefox add-on that uses interactive visualizations to show you the first and third party sites you interact with on the Web. As you browse, Lightbeam reveals the full depth of the Web today, including parts that are not transparent to the average user.

That's kinda neat.  Turned off ABP as a test, this is Neowin.  Purple lines represent sites with cookies.  Scaled down quite a bit from the original.  After a few sites it generates fairly complex graphs, again with ABP off.. nowhere near as complex with it on ;)
