“A Fundamentally Stupid Idea” 2
Contradict Me explains at the link.
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.

That’s Wayne LaPierre for you. I feel sorry for the instructor. The kid probably told his parents his teacher called him stupid, or perhaps the local chapter of young fascists and the NRA is now organizing a grass roots local campaign to have him denied tenure if he ever comes up for it and for oodles of astro-turfers to give him bad ratings on the fink on your college teacher site.

No doubt. No good deed goes unpunished.
