Google will become, if it isn't already, the largest lump of evil ever
seen by mankind. It's already surpassed Microsoft in it's 'Borg' like
behaviour.

I recently installed Adblock plus in my browser. It stopped over 1900
GoogleAnalytics scripts from running, in a three day span.

That company has spying software everywhere on the Web and it all
reports back to head office.

I no longer use Google for a search engine or Google maps for the
phone GPS. They want to use me for data acquisition? The can pay me
for my time and energy consumption, not sneak around my back taking
notes and pictures.

Try www.ixquick.com for searching. It seems quite sufficient.

Just turn'em off. That how it's set up here. Tedious at times because
some electronics companies require cookies but then I can allow on a
case by case basis.

No snooping and tracking here :-)

That's what I like about Firefox... trivial to keep the crap out.

The only downside is the non-interactive "allow" process. Site doesn't
load, no error message because the script kiddies assumed everyone has
cookies turned on. Then it's guessing time, type in all sorts of web
site names until one sticks. Ok, at least I have to rarely do it.

Or is there a smarter way?

I used to really like Jaffa Cake but I guess only Brits would know what
that is. Super mini cakes so they qualify as cookies:

In the Netherlands where I lived at that time they were called Pim's Cake.

"Pim's" is nice booze, good for cakes :-)

I have some in my liquor cabinet.

I used to drink Pimm's number one cup. Tall glass and mixed about 1/4
booze to 3/4 dry ginger ale. Ice. The secret, however, was a long
strip of cucumber peel inserted into the glass and a small wedge of
orange in the top.

The aroma given off by that cucumber slice MADE summer happen.

Best served on a hot day.

These are pretty much my favorite cookie:

Chocolate and rasberry, what's not to like?

Well, there is the so-called Patriot Act which makes an ASS out of U

and ME - presumes that *everyone* is guilty and no way in hell to prove
otherwise.
