Posted in: UncategorizedCracked.com just listed: The 5 Creepiest Advertising Techniques of the (Near) Future – bless the little sods for looking over their stats and realizing that the “5-lists” bring them traffic so that they could bring us this.

This reminds little ol’ me of when I witnessed one of the fellas from Chaos Computer Club hold a lecture at HIP97. He explained that credit cards will “eventually hold all information about me” — “and you”- so therefore; “I go out of my way to fuck up the system. I rent those (porn) films in a hotel rooms even when I’m not in the hotel room.” (laughter from audience) “No, because I don’t rent those films!” (loud cackling from audience)
