Fair point.

Margaret Weis and Robin Hobb would like a word.

And don’t do what I did: assume that the “pictures” version was just pictures. I wound up downloading both the ~102 gb version AND the ~53 gb version.

Every person has a massive profile (table / database) built all about them. This isn’t conspiracy. This is big business. There are a few data brokerage companies focused on people:

-Acxiom (worlds biggest broker, pretty much every piece of junk mail you get drives from a company purchasing data from them)

-TransUnion (credit, such as if you pay the minimum bill or are late on payments)

-CoreLogic (all real estate purchase information)

-FourSquare Labs (location broker which i find to be particularly insidious)

There are also databases built specifically for business entities, such as Data Axle.

And companies will purchase packages from ALL of these data brokers when they want to target a specific audience.

It is a G. It isn’t that hard.

This is patently incorrect! Mayo on the outside is the best grilled cheese exterior!

Giraffes are tall.

Buy once, cry once.

Can you share that recipe, Legolas?

This is great info! Does the “heet” stove give any flavor to the stuff you are cooking?

LemmyLenny!

This exactly. I don’t want to seem pessimistic, but there have been BILLIONS given to ISPs to ensure internet infrastructure implementation. The only thing that has occurred consistently is ISP CEO’s have gotten pay raises and bonuses.

There are no downsides. Perfect.

I like how you just verbed the fuck out of Disney Princess.
