But the data I give them is false. I use a fake name online--several, in fact. I ship to an address different from my own. So while they are assembling a detailed dossier on someone, it isn't me. I do the same thing when I sign up for those grocery store discount cards. So what if they know what some non-existent identity buys? I have credit cards in fake names. I seriously doubt that they could put it all together and identify the real me. (By the way. The photo at the top of the page is me. Do you like my red heels?)

Did you even type "taiwan" into google maps? Cuz i did, and its still there.

What are they gonna do, send me drug ads based on what diseases im likely to get? On second thought, that's not a bad idea. If they're not already sequencing everyone's DNA, they definitely SHOULD.

Stop your pissing and moaning. Seriously covertly creating dossier for the cia? Base on what? Leaked memo, whistle blower? any thing other than some fear mongering whore whispering in the shadow? I cannot imagine that the geek superstars of google wouldn't riot and burn the googleplex if they for one moment thought that was true. If one person was working on something of that nature, even a whisper of that in the hall, and I cannot imagine that wouldn't have already been front page news. If not here, internationally for sure. We live under a microscope here, I cannot imagine for even a minute that those accusations have a chance of being true. Fud this early in the morning makes my head hurt.

YOU ARE A LIAR! I had ads from myreligiousrights.org show up on my gay rights blog. The ads were for how gay rights legislation takes away the rights of Christians (yeah, I still have yet to understand that one). Because I don't want that dirt showing on my blog, I filter those ads, but I assure you, Google DOES allow "Christian" (love thy neighbor, anyone?) anti-gay ads. ugh WordPress's parser is bleh
