Just because some people are more open about their lives doesn't mean everyone is.

And as I've said before, it's more than just sharing photos and stories of getting high and being drunk; it also includes passwords, health info, social security, etc.

ppl that are privy to their privacy usually know about how to stay private. VPN's, Tunnelbear, Tor, proxy servers, etc.

That's an assumption with little credence. You can't just assume that people who enjoy their privacy know that they're being spied on or how to create proxies, and use Tor.

It's not a valid justification. The bottom line is, people have a right to privacy. This ruling goes against that right.

Actually i have all the reason to assume that. Websites of today flat out say (in most cases required by law) they're tracking you or what you do when youre on their site.

So if a person who cares about their privacy doesn't heed to messages like that then why should this be any different?

So let me just get this straight. You are defending this ruling?

I'm not talking about websites, I'm talking about your ISP. Before it was required by law for them to get permission to access and share your data, now they build an entire profile housing all sorts of information about you and can distribute to third parties without your consent.

And that includes passwords and social security.

no, im saying the ruling changes nothing. You were being tracked heavily before this ruling was even a twinkle in the person who made it's eye.

Why else do you think youre url's be long as fck if you dont have "dont track me" installed?

Why else do you have to say "allow xyz", for the apps you download?

They will know I search hentai, porn, ecchi, nudity? OK.

What about my credit card info? If I get a message on my smartphone that "Your purchase has been made on Xsite.com. Your remaining balance is $1"

Imagine 20K dollars been withdrawn from your credit card and you didn't do any purchase.

When this happen, sure as hell I'll join ISIS to kill the U.S. government. Every single one of them.
