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.

Good question. I think we’d be dismayed by the answer. I believe a surprising number of Americans would be for punishing those who burn the flag and punishing Pussy Riot if they had pussy rioted in the wrong place here.
Ted Nugent: “What America is witnessing is the Democratic Party on parade. I say let the parade of simple stooges continue. Let them continue to demand something for nothing, try and close down streets, fight with the cops, live in filth, dance like Timothy Leary zombies … While I don’t condone violence, watching the cops pounce on and pepper-spray a few Occupy stooges and then drag the dirtballs off to jail in shackles is good for my conservative soul and gold for my sense of humor.”
That sentiment if fairly common in the heartland, I do believe. The GOP despises free speech unless it’s their, and it hates youth culture. Even when it pretend to like something, like Paul Ryan claiming he digs Rage Against the Machine, they get it wrong. The party of extremists don’t dance, they have no sense of humor unless it’s the glee at someone else taking a pratfall, and they definitely don’t rock, punk or otherwise.
