They say no one can hear you scream in space, but if you so much as whisper on the Web, you can be tracked by a dozen different organizations and recorded for posterity. Simply visiting a website can allow its operators to figure out your general physical location, identify details about your device information, and install advertising cookies that can track your movements around the web.

I saw mention of bugmenot in that article. Has anyone tried using it recently and found it useful? I tried it back a decade ago when newspapers started wanting logins to read their free online content; I almost never got a login from it that hadn't been disabled already (assuming the NYT, etc weren't intentionally flooding it with bogus ones to begin with).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.
