Aside:

As far as I can tell, the only argument against TikTok is that it is owned by a company based in China and that China may somehow be benefiting therefrom. There seems to be no evidence beyond that suspicion that it is any more–or less–vile than any other internet corporate surveillance “social” media outfit.

I wonder what America’s reaction would be if China were to move to ban Facebook and Twitte–er–X and other platforms because they are based in the U. S.?

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.
