Googe seems to be emerging as the biggest snoop.

"Oh just Google it" is a phrase uttered millions of times

a day. It's like people associate Google with "Jeebus"

or something. Get answers to anything in just seconds.

I take some steps to privacy but I'm no match for whats

out there now.

 

The Internet is a surveillance state

Are we anti American?  Now you're actually going to get us tracked.

Ironically, Krink's CNN link has 14 companies tracking on that single page alone....

I wonder if Abine.com could be an enterprising  cover for a government agency studiously

monitoring who does not want to be tracked so that that they can see where we don't want to be tracked, eh ?

Or is that just residual paranoia centers in my brain reverberating from previous damaging behaviors ?

TW5K, you took the words right out of Snippy's mouth.

The poeple who don't want to be tracked pose more threat to a civilized society than the poeple who are pliant at the hands of industry!

I think the quicker we realize that we are all boring and the only entities that want to track us are corporate whores, the better our lives will be.

       More apologies Pipes! Uke would never accuse you of being Anty-anything! Ever! And you can take those words to the bank (Or hopefully your credit union)!

They'll never track us unless it's part of a survey to find out why Uke can make that spelling just flow right out onto the screen like that. :cy:

I was just listening to "This American Life" and it was all about coincidences, Uke. It must be a coincidence that you're listening to a NPR show on the radio and I'm listening to one online at the SAME TIME.  Ooooooooh!

TAL was on but I wasn't really paying much attention ta this week's show... Musta been reading, or doing yesterday's crossword.
Funny how coincidental happenings happen! Did ya ever hear about the Laura Buxtons? Two English girls brought together by a message in a balloon? That's one of them coincidental happenings tu!

The must mundane things are quite often extraordinary, or they have that potential, don't they?
