jacob ????? Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 I am getting these banner ads on MT advertising a service to tell you about people's secrets and who in your neighborhood has ever been arrested (apparently regardless of whether they were ever found guilty of a crime or not). This disgusts me. What ever happened to respecting people's privacy, and innocent until proven guilty? Why would you want to go snooping into other people's secrets anyway? The only good reason I can think of for this type of service is if you are a malicious person who seeks to harm these people who have been arrested or who have secrets, some of whom keep those secrets secret for valid reasons. Can somebody do something about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacob ????? Posted July 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 websites like MT are able to run because of the revenue generated by these ads, so I feel responsible for allowing them to exist as a contributing member of the community.
