The worst parts about today=E2=80=99s websites is: they are not =
self-sufficient. You go the a website and your browser goes to up to a =
dozen different places collecting some scripts from one, some images =
from another, some =E2=80=A6. you name it. Not to mention mighty bog =
brother google (=E2=80=9Canalytics=E2=80=9D)...

In the past it was considered a bad practice to force browser of your =
visitor go to some places outside of your website/ URL /domain.
