By going on the internet you are treading in a public space.  If you don't
want to be tracked, don't go there.

Anyone with a web site can track your visit, your ISP and any contractor
they ever used can know every byte that comes and goes to your computer, any
government whose borders your IP packet crosses, heck, anyone with a $295
network sniffer can know more about you than you ever dreamed of.  Even
anonimizers aren't safe, all someone would have to do is track the packets
going in and out of them, compare content, match back to the source packet
and voila, they have your real IP.

Fifty years ago it was commies, 40 years ago it was "the man", 20 years ago
it was multi-national corporations, 10 years ago it was Microsoft, today
it's Google.  You really need to get more foil, man, the hat's looking
pretty thin.
