Who tha heck in the government cares about your PC and the info that is sitting there?! Riiiiight! They all need your picks from that secret-gay party that you definitely store at work PC and they crave to record and listen to your skype conversations with Grandma from Alabama. 2. Obama hired a hundred... No! He hired a thousand of foreign (let's say Indian)) IT specialists that will remotely take over each car dealers computer that is using this network. And he has a huge secret government server to store all of the info too! 3. Taking over one's PC through the web browser is really possible. We are so lucky that noone before had that idea, especially the porn sites. Your fears and anger are just miserable. I feel sorry for everyone who really cares about this issue as it is worth nothing, just like the contents of your head. Oh God!

That's like saying it's ok to steal from people under four feet tall because there aren't that many of them. If you violate the rights of one, you violate the rights of all. For me, the biggest problem is not that this sick thing exists, but that so many people don't see anything wrong with it. THAT is indeed frightening. Nazi Germany rose to power with the same dictatorial attitude. The complacent among them said "it won't happen here." The complacent in America are now saying the same thing. Some of them are posting on this blog. Be sure to catch the coming sale on Obama "brown shirts." Some are saying it’s no big deal because the site is only for car dealers.

It's a javascript that displays a 1 pt cursive sentence using white text and background that says "all your base are belong to us!". By agreeing to the EULA, it does help on the hunt, capture, extradition, prosecution and execution of anyone misusing the website, anywhere in the planet.

If you're really concerned about your PC's security - BEEF IT UP! I go to massive LAN parties here in Spain. There's always somebody complaining, but the LAN's full of hackers and pirates they'll take over my computer! And it's true lotsa wannabes at these events. So, let's see, disable file and printer sharing, firewall(not M$) installed, antivirus(not M$) installed, network traffic monitor, and you're all set. I go one step more and use a 3rd party task manager called TaskInfo. I'm familiar with all the processes that my PC habitually runs, so I'd spot an intruder on his first try. It's not that hard. So if you think that the gov is gonna take over your PC don't let them. Oh PULEEZ if you’re stupid enough to think the government is this crafty, you’ve obviously had very few dealings with them.

A) "here you are trying to be a good citizen and make a charitable contribution." -Its a REBATE program. The old car gets DESTROYED! B) "the government of coarse has malware systems and tracking cookies." The government is not installing anything, let alone malware or tracking cookies. It's just a EULA! She's dumb!

If this keeps up, I might seriously consider a name change. I'm willing to bet that Beck changed his name from "Pond Scum", for more credibility. Anyway. I got to thinking that if sites like this were really a problem. They could easily be added to one's browser "HOSTS" file, for blocking bad URLS. And some others that haven't been mentioned here yet. Like buy.com, for their sleazy policy of turning over customers' credit card info to its business partners for billing of unsolicited services. Check out last week's Security Now podcast, about that.

Too bad, their conservative roots have value. It was fun to watch Oreilly be upset about the media calling him out for flaming his nutball arguments ending with Tiller the Baby Killer being shot in church. No apologies. "HE" was upset his straight forward accurate message about Tiller was being used by the media to label him. Hah, hah. That was the same week he started having Glen Beck on as a guest. I stopped watching both at that time, unless they have a guest I want to catch. Same with Hannity. I don't "perceive" the liberals acting with the same conscious disregard of hypocrisy. Am I missing it in my bias? good, now I can go back to my broad brush: all right wingers are lying bags of s&*t. Too bad, their conservative roots have value.
