Headbanging, check.
Whispering, check.
Milk, not yet.
Tongue beheading, seems doable.
Head in lap, does legs behind neck count?
The rest is gibberish. But it's a slow process.

I'm not quite the paranoid android. (No, android is not the OS in 
question). But I certainly dislike it when websites do things behind my 
back.

I've noticed disturbing amounts of traffic when I don't do javascript, 
flash and ad blocking. Especially the ability to see what other websites 
you visit(ed) is disturbing. Even more so when e-mail and logins are in 
play.

Then there's the whole tracking thing, I find the idea of a guy in a 
raincoat following you, jotting down everything you do, rather 
unpleasant IRL. So why would I accept it in the virtual world?

Since you don't always know how trustworthy a link is, whether it's on a 
website, in an e-mail or from who knows what short URL service, the sane 
choice seemed a blanket no to all that crap. I can always give a 
temporary okay.

I tend not to use certain websites at the same time. Sites with 
information that I consider private, require me to login or could cost 
me money, I prefer to open in a single browser window. No other windows, 
no other tabs open. I decided to do that after Google tried to merge my 
Youtube account, rendering it useless.
