We told you so.
As reported by The New York Times:
Nearly everyone who uses the Internet will face the privacy risks that come with those capabilities, which are an integral part of the Web language that will soon power the Internet: HTML 5.
(...)“It’s going to change everything about the Internet and the way we use it today,” said James Cox, 27, a freelance consultant and software developer at Smokeclouds, a New York City start-up company. “It’s not just HTML 5. It’s the new Web.”
But others, while also enthusiastic about the changes, are more cautious.
Most Web users are familiar with so-called cookies, which make it possible, for example, to log on to Web sites without having to retype user names and passwords, or to keep track of items placed in virtual shopping carts before they are bought.
Read how soon nothing will be sacred here.

While concern is warranted for the new markup language, as someone who's information is already on the internet endangering my family and myself, my attitude is "Fuck 'em". Welcome to the reality of the Internet folks so glad you could make it.
As we all know, eventually what was done to those with no power catches up to those who think the same will never touch them...............
yippeee
It gives one a deep and abiding faith in the fact that ... GOD does know what He's doing. You guys were the sacrificial lambs that woke the world up just as my family has been. It could be worse. You could be actual scumbags like THEY are. I'm glad you're you and I'm glad we're us.
Hang in there.
You're the best, Voxy!
Sunny :)
