Interesting article here about web privacy, this guy says (correctly) that all these cool Web 2.0 services are all about using us, the humble site visitors, to organise the web for the man (and give more info about ourselves than the government would ever ask for), for free:
Flickr is perhaps one of the most interesting ones. Search for 'cat', and Flickr will record the most popular photo clicked. By associating the colour and picture data within photos with keywords used to search, Yahoo is slowly building a database of human identification.
So, it's your responisibility to tag your pictures irresponsibly, add the tag "dog" to your pictures of cats and so on, don't give the man an easy ride!
Weekend report on the way, it was just so mahoosive that the write-up is going to take some organising...

You should be careful, you won't be able to ever invent any alibis for anything you've done over the past 5 years - the MAN will just check your blog and know exactly where you were. He's probably got a few crimes lined up to charge you for.

As I've not actually done anything wrong over the past five years, if someone tried to pin something on me I'd have this to go back to and be able to say "aha, I was in London that day, you can't touch me copper!" etc.

Didn't you blog that you were playing with matches in Hemel Hempstead (near Buncefield) in December last year?
