Tech people: Is it possible to ban google analytics ?
Lately, i've noticed more and more sites loading slower, with wait times attributed to google analytics. Google analytics script just takes too long to process. (i can see it in the status bar that the analytics url is loading)

I was wondering if I could just disable it in hosts file. You know, like the stupid ads on GFY.

What do you think, is it doable?

I think this is what you are referring to:
http://www.ccsf.edu/Policy/Privacy/ga.html
Lot of other information on Google for "how to block google analytics".
Good Luck!

To block google analytics, add this to your hosts file

127.0.0.1 www.google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 ssl.google-analytics.com

Google Analytics released a new version, one which would work around blocked javascripts, haven't tried it myself yet.

i would guess it doesn't work around blockers but instead doesn't use javascripts period. My advice is don't use GA period.

I know, but I was just using the thread to let people know that using Google Analytics on your site is.... not very smart from an seo point of view.

I'd be more concerned about the data that G is gathering rather than it slowing down sites... the more sites that add it the more they can build a picture of your surfing habits.
