[Publib] 1st Amendment Rights

[Lisa Guidarini]

And, the grocery store knows if what you buy is healthy or not. With the
new health care system that info is one click away.

 

I blog openly because I want to make others with my past issues know
they're not alone. Writing a memoir's the same thing, and I plan to do
that one day. So yes, there are other ways to put stuff out there. I
wouldn't argue that.

But if you didn't want everyone/anyone to know your personal views, why
would you blog?

 

The marketing stuff is really easy (for me at least) to ignore.  The
grocery targets you for mailer ads based on what you buy (but only if
you use the "preferred card" which also may get you discounts on some
things).  What's the difference?

 

I haven't Googled myself lately, but last time not so much stuff came
up.  And you KNOW I am on publib frequently.

 

Very interesting thread.

True, but now they can Google me and find everywhere I've commented,

find my blog and read it, know my personal views, etc. And marketers

target me based on verbage in my emails. I've seen ads change based on

what I've just written. I see that when I'm discussing something obscure

with a friend, then an ad pops up with the same theme. It's funny, but

scary.

 

People could find you in the old days, but now they can find you much

faster, and with much more detail.
