On the entry page they list robot as well as members and non-members on line in PJ. Robots and Spiders are the random evaluators like Google etc who constantly monitor content via computer programs for updating their search engines.

Perhaps that's why my Superantispyware finds anywhere between 20 and 130 threats (mostly tracking cookies) every time I run it....which is often. I'm not a surfer. I typically check my e-mail, check for alerts on FB and go to PJ.

Oh I am not countering your point as NSA could be one among many so I agree. Online we are all data grabbing potential from a host of categories.

BTW, Superantispyware is the best free download I've found. When I run it first, the others don't find shit. When I run the others first, it still finds cookies, an occasional Trojan and other tracking programs. Their slogan, "not just the easy ones" seems to ring true.

Yep. No matter how we participate online we are not immune. A related thing: Notice all the sites that present ads crafted to your last visit to an online store looking for a specific item. If you priced hoodies and then go to a new site, often that sites ad pages includes the hoodies you were just looking at while online shopping. We're screwed. LOL

I think I've bought things on-line maybe three or four times. The spam I get doesn't seem to have a theme. The ones that piss me off are from MoveOn.org. I had never even clicked them when they started spamming me and they won't stop after repeated requests to remove me. I get a couple from them every day and never open them. If I knew how they got my address, I'd throttle somebody.
