There are two components to all this. One is the tracking and how to stop it. The other is whether any real danger exists as a result of the tracking.

I assume the type of tracking we are talking about controlling has little to do with actual criminal activity. The solution to possible future criminal issues is being taken care of by other professionals I have had to hire. I had a banking issue where a fraudulent cashier's check was cashed on my business account. That caused a bit of hassle but not a super big deal. It was a good bit of money, $230,000.

I do not have any real problems with the fact that a bunch of music advertising ends up on my MSN feed.

The fact that I live in Florida is well known and easy for anyone to find that information.
I am not hiding out any longer even though All My Exes Live In Texas...lol

The advertising tracking idea seems pretty stupid, as I only get the advertising after I have bought something.

I see most people being very secretive about a lot of things, such as health. I had Cancer and was lucky enough to get over it. I can't imagine what value there would be in trying to hide that fact.

All this potential looking over my shoulder, so to speak, just seems a little weird.

If these people who wanted to sell me things were smart, they would just contact me once a month and ask what I needed to buy. Hell, I would be glad for someone to go do all the research I have to do to make buying decisions!
