    That is information that is being given away? Its not very specific though is it. Not anything that you should give even an iota of thought about. Especially if you realise what other information is being being shared around.

    You should look at Companies House and WhoIs if you really want to see how much information can be shared so widely so free.

    Targeted advertising anyone? Adverts for all the thing you have already just purchased. Dont think they have got it working yet this targeted advertising.

    That'll come as a surprise to some on the Politics forum who believe you're posting from Moscow.
