Google is evil, part Deux.

Google ‘paid millions to Mastercard to track credit card spending’ to find out whether people are being successfully influenced by its online adverts

  • Multi-million dollar agreement between the firms took four years to negotiate
  • Google can link purchases of Mastercard customers to their email addresses
  • These addresses are used to track the online activity of those credit card users 
  • This information allows Google to tell if you look at an online advertisement in your web browser or app, then later buy the product in a physical store  

Adblocker stops this.  That is why so many sites have become aggressive towards visitors that use it.  These companies have no morals, no morals at all.

I use both Adblocker and Block Site.  When a site blanks the screen and demands I whitelist them or disable Adblocker, I block the site.  Then I won’t be directed there by a blind link.

The Smoking Gun.

Chinese company reportedly hacked Clinton’s server, got copy of every email in real-time

A Chinese state-owned company reportedly hacked then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s email server in 2015, then inserted code that forwarded them a copy of virtually every email she sent or received after that — a revelation President Trump is demanding be investigated.

Hillary’s carelessness and criminal actions may have led to the deaths of 20 CIA operatives in China.

Business Insider reported:

China killed or imprisoned 18 to 20 CIA sources from 2010 to 2012, hobbling U.S. spying operations in a massive intelligence breach whose origin has not been identified, the New York Times reported on Saturday.

Investigators remain divided over whether there was a spy within the Central Intelligence Agency who betrayed the sources or whether the Chinese hacked the CIA’s covert communications system, the newspaper reported, citing current and former U.S. officials.

The Chinese killed at least a dozen people providing information to the CIA from 2010 through 2012, dismantling a network that was years in the making, the newspaper reported.

One was shot and killed in front of a government building in China, three officials told the Times, saying that was designed as a message to others about working with Washington.

The breach was considered particularly damaging, with the number of assets lost rivaling those in the Soviet Union and Russia who perished after information passed to Moscow by spies Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen, the report said. Ames was active as a spy in the 1980s and Hanssen from 1979 to 2001.

The CIA declined to comment when asked about the Times report on Saturday.

Hillary was responsible, Comey excused it,  Mueller is ignoring it.  And that’s the truth.

Whale Watching

We took some young friends out of Plymouth on Captain John ‘s  Whale Watch.

It’s been about twenty-five years since I went on a whale watch.

Each whale has distinct markers on the hump and back which helps identify individuals . Continue reading →

Curiosity.

Curious about this yacht seen on Thursday in Plymouth Harbor.  Name “Isola”, home port “Aspen Co”?

Features a handheld (Bluetooth?) controller from which the (deckhand, captain, broker?)  was able to control the maneuvering of the boat to the dock from the fantail.

Normally when I’m curious about a boat I’ve seen, I put in the name and home port and it comes up.   I can’t find this one.

Anyone know anything about it?

Forbearance.

John McCain discontinues treatment for terminal brain cancer: family

Published under the Headline “Hero”.   Which I strongly disagree with.

But sometimes it’s best to hold your opinions within,  express condolences to his family and wish John McCain the respect he deserves at this time.

Afterwards, when the progressives campaign to pressure the Governor of his state to appoint McCain’s wife to serve out his term, (which will have the effect of giving the seat to the Democrats), we can take the gloves off.

QOTD: Warren worries about … illegals.

Sen. Warren to Parents of Murdered Iowa Teen: Sorry, We Need to Focus on ‘Real Problems’

On CNN Wednesday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was asked to comment on the heartbreaking case of Mollie Tibbetts, the Iowa teenager who was allegedly murdered by an illegal immigrant.

Rather than simply offer condolences to the Tibbetts family, Warren said they “have to remember” that it’s important for the country to focus on “real problems” like helping illegal immigrants. She then launched into a rote political diatribe lamenting the treatment of illegal aliens at the Mexican border.
