I used to work for a company that manufactures RFID identification and tracking systems. They make for very convenient business and industrial security systems by doing away with the need for keys and ensuring that employees have access to areas where they belong, but not to areas they do not.

Using them to track persons in their daily activities, though, is a step beyond that. They may not be the “mark of the beast” (I certainly don’t think so), but they may easily be the mark of the beastly.

I can see a time when we will all be micro-chipped “for our own good.”

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.
