(Viewed 230 times) ex-goose-villager  Location: Canada Gender: Male  |  Google Analytics? < on 11/21/2005 11:28 AM >   Upon my most recent login, I noticed that my script popup-blocker symbol changed, indicating that something had changed. When I clicked on the icon, it indicated that google-analytics.com was blocked. I had already allowed uer.ca to run scripts, but I am now surprised that google-analytics is involved. Can anyone explain what's going on here? EGV "You're a catastrophe...

I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the other side. Yes, God does speak to you. And he's saying: Take a hint." B.

Does Google Analytics phone home? I never trust a company that big. Especially one that prides themselves in knowing *everything*. Avatar-X  Alpha Husky Location: West Coast Gender: Male yay!  |  |  Re: Google Analytics? <Reply # 5 on 11/22/2005 4:24 AM >   Oh, take off your tinfoil hats and stop being silly. Of course it "phones home" -- how else does it get statistics? But all it gathers is where you came from and what browser you are using and the sort of thing normal statistics gather. Do you really think that a relatively small company cares about *YOU* that much? Sorry, but you're just not that important. -av huskies - such fluff. kc  Noble Donor Location: Pueblo, Colorado Gender: Male "yah, im hangin the drywall at the new Mc.

And google does care about me, I have picked up on conversations with my foil hat, so I know firsthand. Doing a job RIGHT the first time gets the job done.

Just thought I'd add my two cents now, Google seems to have held to it's morals. But there *are* plenty of internet companies that would gladly sell your information to the highest bidder.

Your cat is beautiful, I have a black long hair cat named Bificus that looks just like yours. I see your cat is very smart and double lining just too be safe. I'm on the verge of tears by the time we arrive at Espace since I'm positive we won't have a decent table, but we do, and relief washes over me in an awesome wave.
