Umm. I'll have to get back with you on that. At the moment I'm so entrenched in my own shit storm of a life that I can't add any genuine input on the legitimacy of counterpunch as a news source. Or rather whether it's actually a long game gop propoganda machine covered as a progressive news outlet.
And as for the orignal point of the thread all I can say is I was aware that all of these data collection and targeted dissemination of propoganda from the internet. Perhaps I'm just young enough but I've always assumed everything I've done on a computer has been visible to any one willing to look for it. And I'm nothing if not skeptical of just about everything I read or see on the internet or tv. Again it's just the sensible response to me. I just assumed most people are likeinded in their skepticism.
