Politicians DON'T know me

I was amused at cnet's article regarding Midterm elections: How politicians know exactly how you’re going to vote

It is attributed to the "political data industry" whereby data brokers acquire voter registration information which they subsequently sell to any number of buyers.

While I admit that they may glean certain things from this information; I decline to provide a lot of stuff they may want to get a hold of otherwise.

My obfuscated presence on the internet with vpns and firewalls, and hyperencrypted bus elements simply don't provide the level of information harvesting they can get from someone like some idiot facebook user who tells everything they know without even realizing it.

Yes, I shun social media primarily for those data harvesting tidbits rife with disguised apps which access your contact lists and profile elements proving you're the buffoon that you are.

But I don't stop there. I have also initiated a false information distribution of my own to prevent that information which does seep through the cracks making sure it is largely either incorrect or meaningless.

As evidenced by the inaccuracy of my personal information offered by the vendors of such information to the web using public I would say that I'm pretty darn effective at keeping them from who I am and what I'm really all about.

Suffice it to say that you sheeples need a lot more privacy than you're getting.

You trust those who are untrustworthy and therein lay your problem.

Facebook, Cambridge Analytica, et al are in your business and you can't even stop them because you don't choose to recognize the ramifications.

Luckily this blog is about the only place a person may get to know me. Those for whom it is written read it. I firewalled google for their misbehavior and I am no longer looking for any audience whatsoever.

Too many place too much online. I'm not for sale and I can keep you out of my business effectively.
