Privacy is a big concern with some and not so much with other. Take me for example I don’t care who keeps track of my information and what I look at on my computer it is is going to be used to stop criminal before they commit a heinous crime like blowing up a school then let them track us. They are doing no harm to you by keeping track of what you have visited in the past year. You have probably been to some websites that have even tracked you and remembered where you visited. The only way I would have a problem with this is if they started using this information to send a pop-up to my computer or to the website I am visiting about something I researched a couple of days ago, but really what harm is is doing to you if they do not even use any of the information they have gathered from your websites you have visited? Yeah thats what I thought…nothing, so why not? If it is that big of a deal to you don’t visit the site that keep track or even you think might keep track of you. It is that easy.

In regards to the original poster’s comment on privacy, I agree with much of what he said. I am not a person who minds if a responsible entity can track my history on the web. What harm can it cause our society. I see the positives outweighting the negatives by far. I mean wouldn’t you want the government to flag a pilot who is looking up information on how to make a bomb? I definitely would. As long as the information is kept secure, and doesn’t wind up in the hands of my wife (if i ever wanted one so she couldn’t see my visits to youporn….) then who is it really hurting? But the cookies being used for annoying ass popups is a huge pep peeve of mine. Popads ruin the fun in randomly surfing the web.
