Yes Steam I think tracks what websites you've been to, but they only do this when they are already suspecting you of cheating, and they only send a hash of the url to see if matches known cheat sites. That's just one of the things I remember.

In a perfect world EA would just use steam and give up on Origin. I'm sure they can pay Valve enough to get top billing on steam and it would be less than they spend on their own anti-cheat and origin engineering. They'd also have to cut steam in on sales, but it might still be worth it. It would definitely be worth it to the user as the Origin software is horrible.
