Sad and Confused
A s mentioned elsewhere on this page, new privacy laws passed by the European Union have been announced in the United States. These laws have no force in our country, of course. While I very much sympathize with the desire for privacy on the world-wide web, Google is placing the responsibility for adhering to this European edict on the bloggers. This is a responsibility I was totally unprepared to accept and deal with. Thus, most regretfully, I sincerely ask Europeans to temporarily cease their use of this blog. Failure to comply could endanger the overall availability of this blog. When and if things are clearer -- and the way is cleared, as well -- I will be glad to welcome Europeans back. I love you and need you. Perhaps in the future politicians in Europe and companies in the U. S. will be more thoughtful in their words and actions.
