A demonstration of browser events used to monitor online behaviour

#72Who else feels a sense of horrible dread and frustration that every minutiae of my (and your) online activity is recorded for eternity and exploited to the fullest extent? What are you going to do about it?
I behave online with the understanding that my behaviour is essentially public. PS - how come all website product recommendations still suck? Data collection is rather ahead of data usage it seems...
Targeted advertising isn't about giving you good recommendations. It's about advertisers picking which demographic they want to influence. It may be presented as a "recommendation", but it's still an ad.

And even though they can save it forever, it's outdated pretty quickly. If someone has information that I clicked a button 5 times when I visited a page in '09, this will have zero value now. The information is only valid for hours or days.
I guess most of this information is used to test behavior on pages and to optimize them. And I can only support that. Tracking like this is the reason why popular pages are intuitive. They perform A/B testing extensively to see what works best. I don't see an issue with that.

#74This reminded me that notch web game[1]. Both kept me interested and I find them a very pleasant form of art. [1] http://game.notch.net/drowning/
if anyone was humored, intrigued, or moved by either this or Notch's "drowning".... you will love The Stanley Parable. don't do any Googling or reading on it before you play though. go in blind. i wish i could play it again for the first time.
The Stanley Parable is literally one of my favorite things ever.

I have no idea what the Stanley Parable is. So without googling it, how should one find it to play?
