I’m sure that before long your fingerprint or DNA will provide law enforcement or any one else access to every site you ever looked at, every comment you ever made and any other thing you would rather keep people in the dark about, public information. Just look at the phone hacking scandal: could you imagine prosecution solicitors or potential employers had access to every web site you have ever gone to either as a visitor or a member? Well forget about it!! Those with nothing to hide must be desperately boring… Hands up those of you never “Had a quick look”.

The internet is forever. There is no off switch. Every thing can be combed over and scrutinized and always could be. Our anonymity is simple transparency under mounds and heaps of data. Major companies are trying to expedite mining that data for well, any purpose they see fit. We all sign up for that every time we log on. The same is true every time we walk out of our house, we’ve just assumed we had privacy on the internet and “now” were concerned. come on sip the cool aid and enjoy the show or stop using there products and live in the woods… sounds lame huh? Than accept Google as your lord and savor or not, like it makes a difference. The only real advantage we have as consumers is we reflect directlly the bottom line of the companies we consume from. SO demand privacy and you will be presented with a “privacy sensitive” product, youll take a deep breath and forget about it. This process is repeted millions of times a day, just please oh please dont beleave that privacy acually exist other wise you just investing more and more money into the illusion that keeps these companies thriving. Google isnt bad, its just the internet is never going to be private, i’m sorry.
