Y'know, Bill K, I do not care who tracks me or knows what I purchase or
where I do.  The illegal things I do I do not put on the internet.  In
fact, I have clicked on ads that I get because I searched for something
similar.  To me, that's helpful!  I am going to get ads anyway, so why not
have them be targeted rather than random?  bill w
