Feedom of the Press 0

Pig:  I just went to the city planner for a permit and I think he asked for a bribe.  Goat:  I think if a city official was that corrupt, he would have been exposed.  Enter a man in business suit:  By a newspaper . . . like the one I used to work for . .  . before people stopped subscribing . . . but it's okay.  Because local government will do what's right when operating unseen.  Pig:  Well, that makes me feel better.  Goat:  That might be sarcastic.  Man (shouting):  If you're not paying for journalism, you're paying for not having journalism!

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.
