To paraphrase a John Prine song: A question isn't really a question when you know the answer to.

massive databases with information on the habits and proclivities of gazillions of people, much gathered without their explicit permission:. Yeah, that is benign, right?

Isn't that the case? I have never been asked if it is ok with me for a search company to gather and store that info. Have you? At least when you make a cash purchase at a Radio Shack they ask you for your phone number. I refuse to give it. One time they gave me some guff about it and I inquired whether they wanted me to buy the product there or from a competitor. They sold it to me without knowing my phone number.
