Why Privacy is Important.

I have a simple reason for not installing the Googlebar or anything else that reports my search habits to them. I just discovered, while looking through my search history, that at some point I did a search for "strap-on penguin". Imagine the harm that information could do me if it were made public.

So now that it's in a public post for the world to see, what's with the strap-on penguin?

[swestrup]

Seriously, I have no idea. I must have been in a weird mood and was just searching for random nonsense to see what I would find. I have no memory of doing that particular search though.

so like, are there pictures of said strap-on penguin? and like, are they available on ebay, or what?


I assume you are well-versed at this point in all things strap-on penguin...

[swestrup]

Yes, there are pictures, but I don't know of any currently for sale on ebay...

Sure.
That's what they always claim - it wasn't me, I have no recollection of searching for that particular item, no, those 4 dozen in my closet do not belong to me, I don't know how they got there and I would NEVER use them for said purpose...... O_o
