I find some of the redundancy in googles programs amusing. Their adwords is a good example. Once you visit a place you see ads for that company all over the place. IT becomes the same with news stories. Once you post one on enough places it tends to take off on its own and pretty soon there are similar stories of that topic all over the place. Granted some of it is based on cookies but not all of it is.

I think it's sort of like that old song, "Getting to Know You...Getting to Know All About You..."

Only things is, they (Google, Microsoft, Apple) want to know everything about you. Who you are, where you live, shop, worship, vote, bank, employed, hobbies, affiliations, choices, etc.

The sad thing is, you can try, but you can't hide. "Big Brother" truly is watching you. George would be proud.(Orwell).
