Cigarette companies …
they just wanted
our money
and our lungs
you see!
But ……
The Internet Giants Today …
They want
our money
our life
everyday
in every way!
And they
have succeeded
in taking
more and more
of our money
our freedom
and our life
Away!
Now The Mysterious Blabberer? 
Well said and love the Sebastian picture!

When I saw ‘cigarettes’, it made me see red! In the Medical School, they showed us the lungs of a smoker. Dark, bootle-green, almost black.
How many people, especially young, don’t realise the consequences of smoking?
That is some hand-made Cutie!

Yes, you’ve got that right. I smoked until 1982 when I wound up in the hospital because I was passing out due to irregular heartbeat. Haven’t smoked since. Also gave up drinking 10 years prior to that because my girls were born.

Yes! After passing out at work and later on eating a couple pints of rum raisin ice cream! Delicious though…

I agreed with your sentiment. They want our money and our life but the choice is ours.

Forbes:
“One of the most existential questions of the modern web is how online companies should generate revenue. The web of today reflects primarily one answer to that question: that of a web where everything is free, but we pay for it through our privacy. The web has become a dystopian surveillance state in which companies stalk their unsuspecting victims across the web, extracting maximal profit from removing any shred of privacy or dignity and socializing the risk of data breach or damage to the user, while privatizing all the monetary benefit of exploiting them. Social media platforms often generate the majority of their revenue through selling hyper targeted advertising based on algorithmically mining every second of their unwilling and unwitting users’ lives. Yet those same companies go to great lengths to argue that they are not “selling” their users’ data.
Really!?

Dad this is so true… cell phones are taking over all of our lives.. sometimes it makes me sad because people don’t spend much quality time together because they are always in the phones. We need to pray so much! This is a cute picture of Sebastian too! 🙂
