This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

Yes, they call themselves Americans and they are Americans. That’s the thing some folks don’t understand. Everyone in United States is entitled to their opinion and they’re entitled to voice that opinion even if other folks find it offensive, stupid, moronic, idiotic, hateful, mean-spirited or…well you get the idea. If someone is willing to give them a platform (or pulpit), people can listen or they can turn them off (or tune them out). It’s called free speech and we have to put up with it.
I have no problem with the good folks at Columbia University who gave Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a platform from which to spew his distorted view of reality. Just like the Iranian president, the Ann Coulters, Al Sharptons, and Jesse Jacksons (“Hymie Town,” the Crown Heights Riots, Tawana Brawley, and the miscarriage of justice called the Duke lacrosse rape case) of the world have a right to express their distorted views of reality.

I’m sorry, but did I hear someone mention something about the First Amendment?
