Does it disturb you that you are being followed online?
Yes, it does disturb me because every move you make your getting followed online constantly. Every website your on and every time you post a comment or add a photo somewhere it will save what you just did and websites get to see what your doing because they've installed "cookies." They can also collect all your information. I wonder why websites need to know your information or see what your doing? I think they should make a law about this because I don't want people knowing my personal information.

It does disturb me that we are being followed on the internet because I think it is invading peoples privacy. I wouldn't mind if they were just looking sto see what websites people go on to see what is popular, but when it comes down to people knowing what kind of shows you whatch, what you buy when you shop and other personal information I think there going a little to far. I also think that it should be illegal to install "cookies" in your computer unless you say it's okay. That's why I am disturbed that I am being followed onthe internet.

Does it disturb you that you are being follow on the internet?
Yes because the internet will see your every move and what ever you post on face book or you tube. They will see whatever you save or delete. I would pervent it by not posting a lot of inappropriate stuff on the internet. i would protect my self by not posting any of my personal info.

Does it disturb you that you are being followed online?
Yes it does because you don't know who might track back to your house and find out where you live, and about your life. I want my life to be kept private from anyone I don't know. I don't want anything to happen to anyone just because they were snooping on the internet which should not even be legal. Every button on a computer someone might be watching me. I just think thats bad something are only ment for your family and no one else. No one should have to worry about every button they push just because there on the internet. I hope this becomes a law for no snopping so no one should have to worry that much at all!

Does is disturb you that you are being followed online?
Yes it does disturb me because i do not like knowing that people are spying on me and viewing my personal information without my permission or notice. i also think that it is a violation of my personal space and provacy. people could find out where i live, like to eat, and other stuff about me from spying on me that i do not want them to know or that they dont need to know. i think that government should have laws banning cookies in every way because it is offensive and embaressing to the people being followed.

Does it disturb you that you are being followed online?
YES! Knowing that I am being followed SERIOUSLY creeps me out! I do NOT want people knowing my personal intrests and ideas. I don't use the internet as often as other people might (namingly my brother), but from what I've been researching over the last few days would let people know that I'm kind of obsessed with halloween. Now, I don't really mind if that's out there, but who knows where it ends? What other stuff have I put out there? This is one of the main reasons I cannot have facebook untill I and 13. I don't want people following me online. I'll ever go on the internet with the same security that I used to have again. The breaking news: COOKIES ARE EVIL!!!!!!!

i don't think it is right that people see what we do on the internet and then sell it to different company's. what if someone bad got a hold of that information and tried to use it against me or anyone else. i think that the government should pass a law saying that you can't spy on people. on the up side if people are talking about a bombing they might get caught before they launch the attack

I think its very scary to think about people knowing your every move online. I don't think its right for people to watch what we do online. Some stuff we don't care if they know but other stuff can be private.

It does kind of of disturb me that some people are following me online. It does because I dont know who is figuring things out about me. I wouldn't want anyone stalking me because the dumb internet allows them to find out information about me. But my dad has stuff on my computer that helps block stuff like advertising and junk like that. Another thing, it would be really scary if people I dont know figure things out. People need to figure out a way to stop people from figuring out stuff about us.

Does it disturb you that you are being followed online? Yes, it does because someone could find out my name, where I live, and pretty much everything about me. And I think it's bad that if someone finds out information about you, they can sell it to anyone in the world, and I don't want that to happen to me. I might protect my privacy by being more careful about what I say on email and stuff. They should make a law against these cookies because if information gets into the wrong hands, bad things could happen.

Does it disturb you that you are being followed.

It disturbs me beacuse they would know about you and your family.Also if your mom or dad shops online they would know your creditcard number.If you have a password to something they would go in to your account often.The fact that you are being watched the second you open the internet creeps me out alot.

that is weird how the internet can spy on you just by going on to a website. it's literly like a cookie it leaves a crumb trail behid so someone can see what's going on. why would they do this to peoples coumputers, are they like trying to get us to buy something?and yes it does disturb me because who alse would want someone else tracking what your every move is online just from a small computer cookie!i think this should stop!!!!!!!!!
