Comment Gee, How Much Google Paid For This (Score 2, Interesting) 375
It's obvious that its scumbag advertisers and Google (maybe I'm repeating myself here) behind this. They want a way to track every user and all their behaviors. They want things like these to either not exist or be disabled by default. They live for all the user data they can gather. This also means they are available for law enforcement and any other party with interest to gather that data, now and in the future.
It's already starting to bother me. I'm seeing these advertisements here on Slashdot too. After I've searched for something on Google, the related advertisements start to come up EVERYWHERE on the internet. Seriously, they come after you. If you search for specific flights you start to see ads for that everyone. It'll haunt you and there's nothing you can do.
Google already got into trouble over Safari privacy violations. Did you know that Safari is currently the only browser that blocks third party blocking cookies like those used by advertising networks (Google)? All the other browsers than Safari and IE are in bed with advertisers because both Firefox and Opera get revenue directly from Google. Chrome of course is the worst because it's designed by the advertising network itself.
You know what's the worst thing? I have a developing case of paranoid schizophrenia. The behavioral advertisements are driving me nuts! It's pure hell when you have such case. I have tried to ease me by blocking such things but still Google gets thru something. They literally follow my every step everywhere. Imagine how paranoid you feel when you're already sick. What am I going to do, stop using the internet? That's really nice.
So for the love of god Apache Project, stop taking bribes from Google and doing evil things like this!
