Don' worry 'bout a microchip in your a$$

Just watched a fairly disturbing article on 60 minutes. "We" are doing this to ourselves. Companies get a little here, a little there, then interlink the bits with an IP and wham, there we are. And while I don't use a "smartphone" turns out that if you do, and if you've downloaded some free apps, like "Angry Birds" or whatever the "free" flashlight is called, this is basically a tracker that follows you, or at least your phone, wherever you are

It's getting harder and harder to get any privacy these days.

The government and business all want to track you and what you do....

That's one of the very reasons I don't like google anymore.
They are trying pretty hard to have people put their entire life details online with all these synced and linked programs and online storage.

Yup. I quit using it years ago.

People will put everything on social media sites right down to the color of their poop, then cry because some retailer wants to use that info to offer color coordinated underwear.

WELL, not surprising, its really pathetic to have these "others" to want to know what EVERYONE of us are doing, and when..........THEN, and only then to think, these companies..............PAY a wage to track us. got anything better to do?

BASTARDS, this is why I don't use Google, OR have a smart phone. HELL my current cell phone doesn't even have a camera in it! Not to mention, its only turned "on" when I'M USING it... otherwise I turn it off, "please leave a message"!

You guys would NEVER guess how much ****, I get for not "answering" but..............the fellow that said that Privacy is harder to find these days, was right and its all a load of crap.......Can't **** in peace no more!
