Everybody is spying on you. Every single search engine out there runs you through an ad server first before you get you listing of sites. I once edited my hosts file and started blocking ad sites. I found out that if you block all of the search engine ad sites, you will never get any results. Also having a 700K hosts file loading on your computer slowed it down quite a lot.
So first of all your search engine tracks you, then the web site you go to gives you a cookie so it can track you, and on top of it all the government is also watching everything you do.

There is so much metering going on these days in the digital age, what meaningful data could they possible get by tracking TV channel changes at this level (aside from catalogging your attached storage devices)? -- Espi On Wed, Nov 20, 2013 at 6:49 AM, Kurt Buff < [email protected] > wrote: If I ever do, I will not hook it up to the Internet http://doctorbeet.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/lg-smart-tvs-logging-usb-filenames-and.html This is unlikely to end well for LG...
