But you know that’s occurred to me before. I have a myspace account and after putting on my profile that I am a Yankees’ fan and that Jorge Posada is my absolute favorite player I started seeing ads for the Yankees. I saw ads selling tickets, selling Posada shirts, selling anything Yankees. At first I didn’t think anything of it, but then a few weeks later when I put on my profile my passion of playing the guitar, ads for guitar lessons and ads of guitars for sale started showing up left and right. I finally started to see the connection, but I didn’t understand how the advisers could possibly know my hobbies. I truly find it creepy to think that anyone could just get into my computer history and try to sell to me. People’s information should not be harvested for profit, and especially so without their permission or consent. On the same note, people certainly should be peddled random stuff that an automated sensor thinks they will like. By using a private proxy though, your anonymous surfing will withhold any information you do not wish to send out. This is frightening! But you know that’s occurred to me before.
