After reading the US spied on Princess Di, I don't want to "spied on". I understand alot of it is for our own safety, but it is an infringement on my privacy rights.

Its not only the government spying on us. Businesses do it as well. What do you think those "discount" cards the grocery stores hand out are for? Why do you think you get all that junk mail for auto maintainence contracts from people you have never heard of but know all about your car.

Google your name sometimes, you might be surprised at how much info you can find just on that basis. Add your ss number and your life is an open book

Nathan, you are correct, a friend told me to google my phone number and I couldn't beleive what I found there. I was able to remove myself from google though.

I think your absolutely right here. I believe most people would be suprised what they could find out about themselves with just a couple hundred of dollars and the right websites.

I went to "Best Buy" the other day and they wanted my phone # . I was paying CASH. They trace what you buy, how much you spend, ect. To me it's really none of their business.
