Now I totally want to know what the "butcher number in Munich" was?
Also kudos to your balls! & your wives
The Web has been using encrypted WWW connections for over two decades now. First used by entities processing critical information on the Internet like banks and online shops, https:// is progressively becoming the protocol an everyday user would expect as of 2016: the Google Transparency Report shows that the average number of page loads over HTTPS has exceeded 50%, similarly to telemetry data trends from Mozilla, aided by Let’s Encrypt, a new certificate authority issuing free certificates since April.
With the dependency on Internet communications heavier than ever, simple and common mistakes often result in leaks and breaches that endanger not only the security or integrity of services, but also the privacy of their users: passwords, real names, locations, e-mail and IP addresses, browsing patterns and other personally identifiable information. Even static websites receive such data and the argument of not expecting to process sensitive information is not valid.
TLS has exactly one performance problem: it is not used widely enough.
Everything else can be optimized.

The range of possible attacks on unsecured websites is broad and you may not always be aware of the risks of providing and using websites using the unencrypted version of HTTP. Simply launching a rogue Wi-Fi hotspot in a public place can allow anyone to intercept raw traffic without much hassle. Similarly, Internet service providers and mobile network operators can allow governments to put their hands (however tiny they might be — the governments, of course) on your data regardless of intent or permissions, be forced to do so by the law or have their communications eavesdropped by passive interception of traffic.
Besides protecting services and people, upgrading the protocol has many upsides — the new HTTP/2, increasing the speed of web connections, is available only when used with encryption; using HTTPS, Google will prioritize your website in the search results. Encrypted transmissions mean that nobody will be able to manipulate your pages to inject malware or own ads, which is often the case with public access points or airplane connections. In order to push the adoption of encryption, major browsers will start notifying users of the dangers resulting from using unsecured websites. MyBB is proud to support this movement of creating a faster and safer web.
Stick around long enough and watch the new threads that get deep 6th and it will increase what you think about this site .
I believe I read somewhere that sites like ATS are used for monitoring what people are thinking on the web. It is a simple way to keep tabs on things.

I'm afraid I'll have to call you out on all digital pictures having Lat and Long coordinates in the meta data.
This might be possible for smart phone cameras that have built in GPS.
However, my 3 DSLR cameras, that I've had to take apart from time to time to repair, do not have any GPS circuitry with in them, nor any circuitry that would allow for the camera to know where it is.
It might be possible to identify a general area and even exact location of where a picture was taken based upon what is in the image that can be recognized as a feature, terrain, building, etc, but the data located within image files with my DSLR cameras will not contain any information for location at all.

I use to be a violent man and NOW I am a peaceful man who remembers the violence he so often embraced.

You guys are missing the most important aspect of this thread....
OP has stated at least twice that he has died and come back. His claims to beat death are far more interesting than the govt spooks that may or may not be following him.

Perhaps OP didn't 'literally' die and come back.

Well.... my wife, son, daughter, two doctors and four paramedics were in the room when they told my wife I was dead as he and the others put me into a black plastic bag. I was told they heard me moaning as they were off loading me off the ambulance.

Death......been there......done that.......and now I know. You do NOT DIE at death. Death is a lie.
Then OP will need to clarify this statement
