Privacy Notice (Not Quite a Query – Although Some Burning Questions Have Been Raised -- Updated 2019)
To include third-party
ads or to remain ad-free and pure?
What are the
pros and cons of inviting advertisers to hawk their wares on one’s website,
hoping to catch a few crumbs from them and Blogger?
Is it even ethical
to manipulate the masses into buying consumer goods and services they never
even knew they needed until Madison Avenue told them so?
Why or why
not?
These are the burning questions of the 21st
Century.
Currently, we do NOT use third-party
advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our website.
At some point, we may cave and invite
advertisers to sell, sell, sell on our website, or Blogger might force us to use
ads since we are using their server space gratis.
Ah. The free lunch.
Is there really
such a thing as a free lunch?
Discuss.
In any case, Blogger requires us to disclose
how advertising companies may use information (not including your name,
address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to ad-encrusted websites
in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you
(or not. We actually find ads rather annoying, intrusive, and often disabling).
If you would like more information about third-party
advertising and your choices about not having this information used by these
companies, click here.
Trust us. The above link leads you to a
bunch of legalese and mumbo-jumbo.
Just know this:
The Man always wins.
