bah i had a big long post written out, but said fuck it , it aint worth it.

You tried to make the case that everything, including paid-for software, includes spying and monitoring functions.  You posted an excerpt from an MS EULA as proof that MS "spys" and "steals" your personal information, even though the EULA says nothing of the sort.  From there, you jumped forward to claiming that EVERY bit of software in the world "spys" and "steals." 

I didn't find this particularly persuasive, so if your big long post was more of the same, I'd say "fuck it" was the right decision for you.

no i said fuck it, because there is no way i will ever change your opinion, and thus its a waste of time and effort to try and do so.

Not with a post as poorly constructed as that other one, you won't.  And if your point is some nihilistic take that "we're all fucked so learn to live with it," you won't change my opinion either, though you are welcome to it if it suits you.

Your mother's "poorly constructed".

I've seen you rattle off more than a few poorly constructed posts. And that's fine. Me too. I'm just sayin, people in glass houses shouldn't live in glass houses.
Or somethin.

I've never seen a tech. thread turned into a debate before.
If it makes you feel warm and fuzzy - you win.
Not really, but that's a lie I'm willing to tell if it makes you feel validated.
Do you want a cookie? I'll send you a trophy if you'll pay for it.

Nope, that wasn't convincing either.

Here, try these on:

I use it at the Everett Library and like it a lot. Of course there aren't too many choices at the library, and I got mad at Firefox about something political.

Now as far as email is concerned, I switched to Reagan.com from yahoo in June.  It costs $40 a year, but I'm pretty happy so far.

I got Chrome from a 3rd party site that had loaded it up with a bunch of parasite programs that were a PITA to get rid of.

heh heh, wtf.

I googled "Chrome" instead of just going to Google.com.  IIRC, site I clicked was Googlechrome.com.  The bundled junk wasn't deeply nefarious; just search, tune-up and maintenance crap that popped-up in Chrome randomly until uninstalled.

In answer to the OP question:

Yes, caveat: implicity.

You see, I've been using Google redacted (pay good money for that marketing research) to track Noory affiancondos' (sp) [don't trust spell check!] and it has indeed led to undisputabley good horse pr0n!  So ipso facto, you see ergo swum...  'nother thang...
