Intel IS a commodity. Do you use Facebook or are you on a computer running Microsoft 10? You mentioned Ebay, I definitely saw you mention Ebay. They know everything about you worth knowing. Maybe not all of them, maybe the data isn't all in one place, and very likely it's just stored in a data center somewhere and no human being has ever actually had eyes on it... but they could. It is amazing how accurately one can fill in the lacunae given an adequate number of even seemingly unrelated data points.
But also, that said, it might NOT be so bad to make a running leap right out the closet door. It seems to have done the gay community more good than harm so far.
IN a technological world technomancy is the way to go. I am not concerned.
