By Paul | Published September 23, 2016

I’ve been watching “How I Met Your Mother” on Netflix streaming, and I really like the show. I’ve been having the feeling that the show was very familiar, even though I never watched it when it was on television (every episode is new to me).

You know, it occurred to me several years ago, that if I could “Like” something on Facebook from another website, then Facebook was tracking me. I log in and out–even on my iPhone–every time I use Facebook (or Google, for that matter)… If you don’t, or don’t know why you should, you may want to […]
