I have been reminded lately that when
you open up a Google, Facebook or Linkedin account you sign up to
things happening you never intended to allow happen to you.
Like for example getting Blog Posts
from people you never met, and perhaps who even seem to have an
agenda you don't subscribe to, or even have, God forbid, a sense of
ironic humour.
In my case I was told that someone
received this blog who did not ask for it.
Even when I was explaining to this
person, by return comment, that I had removed them from a Circle
suggested by Google, I was offered another opportunity by Google to
add this person to my circles.
It can even get worse: if you write a
letter to a newspaper and mention or quote a famous worldwide author,
you may as I did, find a reference to your letter in USA Today or the
China Almanac, or some other periodical.
If you attend a meeting to discuss a
project being foisted on your area and you join the committee and
they collect names, email addresses and mobile phone numbers, and
someone writes an article containing the committee details in the
“Skerries Online News” or the “Muskatee Sentinel Online” you
will find your personal details being given to the World.
So to avoid this I suggest: you remove
your Google Profile, cancel your Twitter account, close down your
Facebook page, don't sit on committees and don't write letters to
newspapers and throw away your smart-phone or Pad and don't ever
activate GPS.
THE BIG BROTHERS ARE WATCHING!!!
