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.

Ms. Mallory has made a strategic error. If she really wants to get Harry Potter books banned, she needs to hang out on the playground when school is dismissed, handing out free copies of Harry Potter books along with study guides that imply Harry Potter promotes Christianity, not Wicca.
The more I think about this, the more I like it. Another one of my subversive ideas, right along with handing out free Switchfoot CDs.

Or, following the same line of reasoning, make it required reading in a religion class (rather than a literature class).
