Never be afraid to do your best work and let the

world enjoy it.

Never let someone tell you not to try something because it's stupid.


Turn off the recommended settings.


Break your computer and learn to fix it.

Not in your post TD. For some reason your link is not in blue but TC's is blue and therefore works.

the really sad thing is, they been collecting this data, and didn't know it.

So, you're on an open network, and you expect privacy, like swimming in a public pool, naked, and you expect everyone not to look.
