If it wasn't bad enough that Google might be spying on you to deliver "appropriate" ads, New Scientist reports that the NSA is researching the harvesting of information that people post about themselves on sites like Myspace and Friendster.
They also may combine that data with other information such as "banking, retail and property records, allowing the NSA to build extensive, all-embracing personal profiles of individuals." And if the US government has this technology, then other governments probably do as well.
So, bottom line is to be discreet about what you post online. Don't give out personal information like phone numbers, addresses, etc. Be very wary about what you include in your public profile.
CIAO for now,
