Absolutely Hilariously Funny Stuff!
The reasoning: Because companies can make money selling your information and they use it anyway so what's the difference? It's going to help business right? Well... no, not right. The exact opposite is true. I'll show you why. But first let's look at some facts about what they are talking about.
Internet providers are called ISP Internet Service Providers. They use information in some ways. Like Google analytics, that's important for the businesses on the internet. Really, very important. Advertisers already use the information they need to customize advertising to the customers browsing habits. If you don't browse, (use the search engine to look things up) then they just have ads on pages you visit from time to time. Like that. That's about all there is to it, really.
In scaring people into protecting their information something happens to make their assumption turn out exactly opposite to what they said the reason is behind what they want to do. The votes have already been cast in the House and Senate. The President only has to sign the 9idiotic) legislation into law. The hilarious part is that they really don't seem to know that, when he does - millions of people will automatically go to the internet settings on their computer: like this-
It's at the top of your screen when you are on the search page like MSN or GOOGLE.
Then you go to Internet Options.
Check the delete Browsing History box. Then select OK.
This is in settings. Check these boxes. But you will have to keep signing into your sites every time like Google- or your Blog. You can't save passwords for the site. Your favorites will be gone - so- every time you search you will have to type in the site, like if you want to go to Amazon you will have to type it in.
So, in reality, there will be far less data for the businesses to track. It will be far more difficult for those businesses to follow trends and specify ads to the customer. What they are doing will have the exact opposite effect on business. And it will open the door to spying on businesses by businesses, not open the door to more consumer information.
I've already signed up to delete my browsing history and have adjusted my settings. It's a little bit more of a hassle but you should do this to protect your information.
Basically what they voted for is DUMB. I'm a Republican. But what I'm saying is that this legislation is stupid.
While your here take a look at my new Action Rider artwork that's coming out on a T- Shirt at NewC T-Shirts through Amazon Stores. The work is called "SONIC WAVE POWER PUNCH!" There are several colors to select from. After this shirt is online, if it is OK'd by Amazon - I will make a couple more versions of it. One with transparent background and one with book cover format. I submitted the design today, Be sure to hover the point over the image on the site to get a close up of the work! I think it will look extremely cool on T Shirts. Men, Women, & youth sizes. Take a look:
This is from the original work before customization. This is close to what the end formatting looks like. This snip comes from the book cover artwork.
If I sell enough T shirts I'm going to buy the 14,000 dollar a year heart meds> Like the RICH guys! Ha! Ha!
Later.....
