out to the wood-shed.
This is DiabeticMan's wife and while on Ancestry.com I saw this little advertisement.

This is how internet and social media is helping to destroy what the Founding Fathers tried to protect with the 4th amendment!
Think about it. Face book linking all your likes and dislike all your talks and friends into ONE big pile that is sold to the highest corporate bid so that they can ADVERTISE to you and your friends.
Play a game ONE time on freaking face book and the next thing all your family friends and so-call friends--those you know only through the net but yet meet--are being told you like this game they should play it with you.
We allow "harmless" companies to track how many times we buy Warm Vanilla Sugar shower gel so we can get a 50 cent discount and for that 50 cents you allow your whole life to be used by data miners so that you can't go to your favorite website without seeing an advertisement for Bath and body's new sale!
Didn't a court rule a few days ago that if people allow corporations to collect data on them it's okay for the NSA to collect every phone call we make after all we have given up our privacy to group A so we might as well stuff our righteous indignation down our throats and let Government B have there way as well!
We already have corporations using local police to help them gather "Volunteer" DNA samples. Now this with Ancestry.com! So in 3 years from now when DNA is required or you go to jail will we suddenly be screaming?! Those of you who laughed at me and said I was dumb for wanting to protect my personal information when I FIRST tried to sign up for the ACA think about that when it is required that you give your DNA!
All my life (At least the last 20+ years) I was always taught Don't give out your Social Security Number to anyone -Even a person saying they are with federal government. Social Media becomes overnight rage and must do than 9/11 hit and all of a sudden people gives up privacy to show how plug in they are and how much they believe the fear mongering!
Take a step back people and really think about what we are doing to ourselves and future generations.
(I expect to be hung for this but remember these are my thoughts and not my husband's.)
