I happened across this, and wanted to share.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRj2HJx5Il0I had been hearing a lot about Google the past few years. I have noticed that I have ads targeted to me. Even about stuff that I look up on you tube. Or search terms it would seem. When I open my webmail and other gmail products, I am getting targeted ads Like drugs aimed at sensitive medical conditions that I have spoken about in emails.
I wonder what else out information is being used for? Or will be in the future with the information that's being stored.
When I started the internet in 1993, there was none of this. You paid for service, and then you recieved the product. Then they started to push you ads. Even for paind account. Like I have a provider that I pay for. And on its webpage the I sued for news from different outlets and stuff, I am getting ads puched to my like the paind accounts use to. Seeem s like greed. But on top of that, I have seen them discover that they can put the information to other uses. Or, the government has seen that as well.
I am thinking about deleting my gmail account, and you tube and using my account that I have paid for threats NOT data mined. At least as far as I can see. I will look into encryption for my email as well, and digital signing.
And people really need to watch Chrome. I have heard a lot that this browser is use to capture terms that you use for searching, and use those, and store those as well. Even it u you do not follow threw with it, and delete a term to select a better one. I have read that this is also captured. But why?
I hope that Firefox is a little better than that. But being more of an open source product, it might be harder to hide ill doings.
Now I wonder what Microsoft i collecting on us? And they so collect some information. They just tel you that its not personally identifiable. But the fact i that you can still be tracked.
I am sure that people of liberty and freedom would want to take notice of all this.
