Sorry, I was not aware that all this sites doing it and that there are
people that thinks it is normal and harmless.
I am too naive and maybe too old. For my generation privacy seems to 
be much more important. When I was young I was on the street to 
demonstrate against the government only because they wanted to count
us all. I don't expect to find someone on this list who can
understand this.
