I'm completely cool with the analysis of one's own web server logs.
What I'm not cool with is Hacker News knowing that KindGirls is my favorite website of ill repute.
Consider the challenge faced by closeted homosexual presidential candidates.
Analytics is also used for credit scoring. That is, suppose I were to hang out at sites that covered asset protection, bankrupcy. There are all kinds of ways to beat debt collectors, most of them perfectly legal and while well-documented they are not well known.
Were I to apply for any manner of loan after hanging out at all these sites, my loan would not be approved.
If you don't believe me I can dig up the specific company that offers this "service" however not just now as it will take me some time to find it again.
