This is a little unsettling. It’s been going on for years, I’m sure, but I never noticed it till now.

I went on Google to look up remote control light switches– a slightly unusual piece of hardware. Now several sites I visit have flashy ads for them. Makes me glad that I never assumed my internet searches are private.

You can’t beat the net for putting out information in public. Being able to instantly publish my cranky opinions and talk back to the news is like candy. If I want privacy, I’ll send a letter.

That’s how I always operated, but the light switch thing is a reminder– your screen is watching you.
