Who doesn’t like cookies? When a website posts a notice about cookies, that sounds like a free offer for something good. But cookies on the internet are not good or bad. They aren’t cookies at all in any real sense. They are simply embedded technology that attract and use information about us and what we do on a website. Aside from software that enables a website to function, many “cookies” - let’s change their name right now to “Collectors” - grab, share, sell, and use our personal information. This leads to an invasion of our time and space - an invasion of our privacy.
Tune in to Episode 159 to explore how Collectors pose a threat to our privacy and how we as individuals should have a true and ready choice about how our personal information is collected, used, shared, and sold without our conscious awareness or approval. Consider the recent history of Avast, a leading anti-virus software provider, as we learn how “Collectors” work and how each of us can choose to avoid Collectors if we wish to have a more private, calm existence in a digital world.
