As you point out, US based companies engage in similar data-gathering, both for private corporate purposes and for unconstitutional US federal purposes.
They _could_ and _should_ ban such data-collection / data-sharing / data-selling, but I expect they will not. -

St Louis area also warned.
No known damage in this area.
There was some significant wind and rain for a few minutes. No hail observed. #GS3 was aware enough to be concerned about a tornado, but as far as I know, no twister touched the ground. -

He tried to persuade me to stay with $EMPLOYER until I get a replacement job. I promised to consider his advice (after all, it is what I have always advised people to do), but I do not think I will change my mind.
He talked about the group that he hired on with, and how half of them left and are now trying to return because they had nothing to keep them active. But I have no illusions about enjoying sitting in a rocking chair or going fishing every day. I already know that even if my financial needs were taken care of, I would still need to be productive.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

We can leave our time right where it is.
My grandson (2, but will be 3 soon) had a meltdown because "it can't be bedtime, it is still daylight". He's not wrong. Just a couple of nights ago, bedtime was after sunset.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

My recollection is that Papaya was staying with my mom for some sort of youth empowerment training, so I shipped his tablet to the house ... and despite "signature required", the UPS driver left it in the driveway.
When he returned home, his brother suddenly contacted me to ask whether he was getting one. I had already planned on visiting Jeremiah (employee at the Best Buy store ... I made sure that every sale went through him ... they weren't on commission, but that doesn't mean they don't keep track of how productive an employee is) after work the next day.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

It was interesting that faveNephew and LG brought up the year I'd gotten tons of overtime, so I shipped each one a different model of tablet computer back when most people did not have such devices.
PizzaMan, being the youngest male, was always the last to get anything. Even his younger sister got things before he did. So I sent his tablet first, a week or more before the next sibling's shipment.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

He got to meet one of the meteorologists from https://www.ky3.com/weather/ and to talk to an employee of NOAA / NWS, who had a little vortex machine for kids to see and touch. He also got to see another station's "storm tracker" vehicle.
Kudos to KY3's weatherman, who gave #GS3 and #GS4 his full attention and talked with them like they mattered. I am new in the Springfield area, but it is really cool to see.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink Attachments

They'll probably combine the "sick child" visit with the periodic "well child" visit.

I am tempted to keep it going instead of starting seal week on Sunday.
He tolerates #GS3's weather and space interests, but they aren't really his thing. We're looking for his own thing to explore with him.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink
