How magnanimous of you to allow us poor, underinformed and misguided souls to unwittingly feed ourselves to the wolves.

Sorry you read it that way, I honestly didn't mean it like that. The point I was trying to make (perhaps not in the best way) was this (I've had time to think how to word it properly) there seems to be two view points (with some shading in between) 1) They aren't collecting data you don't want them too and 2) They are collecting as much data as they can on you with or without your consent, obviously I fall into the second line of thought

Now me personally I would rather take the second view and be proven wrong because I haven't lost anything, what I was trying to get across (perhaps badly) is if you take the first point of view and it turns out you were wrong you stand to lose more than someone taken the second point of view and being wrong. As I've have said several times everyone makes up their own mind about what they think is the right thing to do.
