Perhaps you should contemplate wearing a bag over your head every time you leave your home? Do you have any idea how often you are video recorded many times without your knowledge. That's sure an invasion of privacy. You can't avoid it these days. These companies that gather data have no bad intent, it's about making money. That's pretty much it.
You don't think credit cards "track" you? It's EVERYWHERE! You don't think banks "sell" your information? What about the lovely credit bureau's? They make a mint off of selling your credit profiles to lenders, employers and others. Here is a solution, just live in a log cabin in the middle of nowhere, like Grizzly Adams. |

You can it out with all your credit cards, you can opt out with your cell phone, and your internet provider, you can also opt out of consumer services, you can use opt out pages for Google, as well as the NAI. You can contact the credit unions as well and opt out there too... Last edited by ChinaLamb : 14 May 2017 at 10:37 PM. |

You can even opt out of several national databases, have to give driver's license, other proof, but as long as it's not a government, you can still exclude yourself from many services collecting your data. |

Good one

And even if you opt out, they still have your info but you just paid them to look it up. Again, if you are a law abiding citizen having your info out there really is not a big deal. Twisted, very twisted... |
