They could find out if a person spends more time on your blogs about prison, or your blogs about gun rights/info, or your blogs about the Catholic Church, etc.<br /><br />Whoever 'they' is, they wouldn't need to know about you or your site specifically, all they would need to do is collect all the open traffic they can, and search for key phrases like 'gun rights' and they could mine yours and many other sites traffic logs to develop a personality profile of a single IP address, which tends to belong to a single individual.wordlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997640454166527319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-32467473762357770202014-06-18T21:46:31.340-05:002014-06-18T21:46:31.340-05:00ME!
