Just going online on ANY site and you are being data mined!

Go to the grocery store, make a purchase, scan your store discount card, get coupons based on your purchases.
We're all in someone's database.
No one gives us anything free. We have to buy it.

No use adding to the 'deception'. The least amount is better than all of the possibilities, IMO.

Thanks for letting us know. I keep receiving a weird pop up message lately though I have anti virus. I guess it's harmless as nothing has happened.

Okay, I always sort of figured it was a marketing thing but I don't see how they can get your credit card info etc? None of the quizzes I took ever asked anything like that.
One that was posted (not by Croemer) asked for your email address before it would give you the answer to the quiz and I wouldn't give that.
I don't see how they can get info that is harmful?

I don't either...none of the Quiz's I posted asked for that info. Now selling your preferences I can see.

Yep. Almost everyone I took asked for an email address which made me close the quiz.

I was wondering the same thing scottie.
I recently installed Adblock Plus and absolutely love it. No annoying ads on any website. Best thing since sliced bread!!
