Location Information and Me

    pushpin

There is a bit of a hubub going on about the sharing of location information. Typically some networked device like a web browser or a cell phone operates under software with coding to both evaluate and store this data ... primarily geolocation stuff and you are allowed to "opt out" as it were at your discretion.

Now then, I am not a proponent of sharing location data. This is due to the incorrect geolocation associated with my IP. I fully understand that this is the fault of the ISP and I will hold them accountable in due time — two months now and counting.

They have me listed as Summerville, SC when in fact I am about 110 miles away. Nobody thinks that I should care about this only I've brought it to the attention of everyone involved from stupid google to idiot ISP and they can all shove it at this point.

The GIS antenna is one of those expendible items installed which I have no qualms in cutting with extreme prejudice.

Suffice it to say that location information as it relates to stupid Google and the equally stupid Time Warner now called Spectrum leads me to believe that my business and traffic are not valued and as such I will be separating from both as a matter of course imminently.
