If you see GraphiteTinker ads when you browse the web, then we may have some bad news for you – these ads are caused by adware. Adware isn't a dangerous computer threat, but some of the things it is capable of can turn out to be quite annoying and privacy-intrusive. For example, the GraphiteTinker adware uses a tracking cookie to gather non-identifiable information about the targeted user's browsing habits and online activities. This information may be used for several purposes, but most adware authors prefer to utilize it for targeted advertising campaigns. In short, the GraphiteTinker adware may spy on your Internet activities, so that it can provide you with ads relevant to your interests.
The advertising techniques used by GraphiteTinker include banners and pop-ups, but it is entirely possible that the adware may utilize other advertising methods too. GraphiteTinker ads may be used to promote various services, products, websites, and affiliate links. Although the content of the ads should not be malicious, users are advised to stay away from GraphiteTinker ads. Some of the web destinations promoted by these ads may bring the user to fraudulent websites or may try to involve them in an online scam. The GraphiteTinker ads should be removed with the help of a reliable and potent anti-malware product, to ensure that all of the adware's components have been successfully wiped from the PC.
