Don't Beam Me Up Scotty
A California based website spock.com is planning to index all six billion people on the planet. No thanks! They already have gazzillions of people in their database with plans for many more. Count me out. I don't want to be found.
At the bottom of my blog I feature your blog this week. I alternate on a vaguely weekly basis. My numbers went ballistic when Nazh featured me, so I thought, share the love. If you want the code to do the same for other blogpower bloggers, it is easy and I can tell you how to do it.
Very clever backdoor way to id people. The cabals really want us tabbed and the urgency is what intrigues and puzzles me. I know the agenda exactly but why so fast?
Is Spock behind this himself?? If so we are doomed. I have some Spock boxers made in about 1975, and despite having been washed 80,000 times they have barely faded. Proof enough I think...
And... how do they plan to index EVERYONE? If it's "invitation only," that sounds like they're planning to index only people with, say, internet access, or those who have a mailbox.
How are they going to index really remote people like the Yanomamo of Central America?

ReplyDeleteI'm getting a lot of visitors coming in from your blog. Have you linked to an article of mine?

ReplyDeleteIf I shut my eyes tight and stick my fingers in my ears can you promise they won't find me either?
ReplyDeletePersonally I think that it is very creepy. We all worry about our on line information. This kind of thing is exactly why.

I am sure the Yanomamo will have satellite broadband before too long. Then they will be on Facebook and then on to Spock.
