I've been hearing this from so many people! And a huge part of why we're so stubborn about continuing to run this place is that we want people to be able to do that without having to worry about, like, advertisers gathering interest data on you based on what you're writing about, etc. I really do think the reason a lot of people got out of the habit was because of worrying about how their entries would be used. You can be confidant that's not going to happen here, both because we have no advertising and also because we're too old and tired to spend the effort to do anything nefarious, that is absolutely time better spent on a nap.
