Facebook Frolics, Man in the Middle Dept. 0

Facebook attempts to bamboozle users into using at-facebook-dot-com email addresses.

Typical.

The link describes how to stop displaying the at-facebook-dot-com email address, but, consistent with its practice, Facebook moved the settings around again and it took me about five minutes to find it. There is no way to make that at-facebook-dot-com email address go away, though.

Anyone who tries to email me at that address, forget it. I’ll never check it and, if I stumble over it in a drunken stupor, I’ll just delete the mails.

Thanks to Todd for reporting this.

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.
