Well I must confess that when I actually lost that feeling of control I felt really weird about it, and that surprised me. I have nothing to hide, but letting all these services have so much information about me, makes me feel even more like a statistic (if that makes sense).
Currently i'm sitting in the sun, thats not a secret by the way ;-), talking to a fellow student about this very subject.
What are you blogging about?I told him that I was writing about loosing control over you personal information and how that can make a person feel. When I was telling him that I had a realisation.. why did I go through with this when it gave me a bad feeling? Why didn't I object to the teacher? Why did I sign on to all of those services in the first place?
I think I knew in the back of my mind that there is no such thing as privacy anymore. Well you could look for it, run away deep into the forest and never return but is that something we really want? Well I have much more questions for myself but I will reserve those for maybe a later date! ;-)
Interesting blog. I think that privacy on internet is a lot about your own choices. Where do you sign up for and where do you talk about on, for example, Twitter.

I think I use it for both.
