WHAT THEY KNOW ABOUT YOU AND ME---Part 1

THE GOVERNMENT'S INTRUSIONS INTO OUR PRIVATE LIVES HAS BEEN WIDELY PUBLICIZED. THE LAST PART OF THIS THREE PART BLOG WILL FOCUS ON THE GOVERNMENT'S MASSIVE CAPTURING AND ANALYSIS OF THIS PRIVATE INFORMATION.

This Post deals with something I learned from listening to the Kim Komando's ALL THINGS DIGITAL weekend radio broadcast.

If you are a frequent traveler or stay overnight in a high dollar motel/hotel chances are very good the management knows a lot about you before you check-in.

They Google your name, search you Facebook page, read any blogs that you maintain, search newspaper articles about you in an effort to make your stay a very personal affair.

For example, magazines that reflect your interests will be in your room when you arrive, cooks are told of your eating preferences and the NDA (Next Day Arrivals) will have a full description about you: Age, married/single, kids, job, where you vacation and much, much more.

I have resisted the social media craze for many reasons. This is yet another.
