Thank you for your explanation, tbat greatly clears up my confusion.

TBH, if a person's concern is being tracked by, for example, Facebook; then this just lets Facebook continue tracking them without directly allowing Facebook's anaylitics customers to track them to another site directly (but indirectly that information can still be provided). But I guess for all the people giving FB and Google those proviledges better to have this than not.
