Every so often I get surveys from Panel Base , Valued Opinion etc that requires me to download and install a tracking app on your PC or tablet. Never keen on installing software on my devices that sound invasive. Anyone tried?

yes, though never lasted long! The VPN networks that are often set up were slow, blocking some sites and caused all sorts of issues. Others slowed my phone down or drained the battery. In short; I won’t bother anymore...2

I did one for about 3 months . It did pay out and you could continue using it but the pay was less after the initial period so I took it off. The one I used didnt interfere with anything else.Its me Culpepper LOL couldn't sign in with the old ID so time for a fresh start....0
