No, that is not right, Although the mailing list is useful to broadcast
agregious complaints, if your in a business, and your talking to a poitential
customer, you have zero right to expect any sort of privacy.

Aside from that, your description of such airing of complaints as being a Jerk....


So be it, not acting like sheep to a slaughter is conveniently defined as being a
jerk only as a matter of opinion... and not one I hold.

The world can use a few more vocal individuals when it comes to the abuses of digital
tracking and the threat of big data, and AI analysis.

There is a time and place for everything. Any time I'm screwed by a business, I'm very
likely to be vocal about it... and there is no private such conversations on such matters.

But churning this even further, lets say we are having a truly private conversation, and you
admit to me that you have 5 skeletons of prostitutes for Atlantic City buried in your backyard
in Edison NJ. I'm supposed to stay quiet?

Everything is a matter of context. If you talk with me, don't assume it is private unless we
both agree as such. And my view on that matter is very much not likely to agree with your view.

I'm plenty capable of judging for myself what is and is not private matters, and we have passed
more than a few conversations with that regard, private information between the two of us, both
back and forth, concerning each of our private lives, that will NEVER make a public air. And I'm
sure you are confident in that regard. Furthermore, I've had dog fights and organizational arguments
with individuals who I've had very very very sensitive internal sensitive information on, and even in the
midst of the most heart wrenching conflicts, I've never slipped a word on the unrelated matters, even
though it would be a crippling blow to that persons personal life.

So I am 100% confident in discerning what is private and what is not. And tech support is NOT.

This topic ends up on this mailing list because I'm fed up with the standard use of technology
to violate peoples person and to crusade verbally about tracking, which is obviously an embarrassment
to the very people who do it, once it is exposed publicly. That is 100% on topic of this list,
although frankly anything can be a topic on this list...just about.

Although I don't know how long that will last for that people will be embarrassed by this activity.
Young adults without experience are entering society with no sense of self, or understanding of the
underlining danger involved. But this is not much different than the copyright wars and the DRM and
DMCA arguments with that regard. If you want to accuse me of tilting at windmills, stand in line.

Who me! You see so through my veneer of civility! You seem to be saying that this topic is not
dear to me and that I'm just enjoying being a jerk. I honestly don't feel I need to respond to
that issue, as it is a matter of ones perspective and such arguments can't be one. It bothers me
that you feel that way, but not as much as the tracking and electronic surveillance bothers me.
