You're Being Watched…Right Now
from the send-me-the-results dept
It seems that some researchers are out there monitoring and recording online discussion groups for “research purposes.” Hey, I say bring it on. All I ask is a detailed analysis of the way my mind works. I’ve been trying to figure it out for years and have really never wanted to pay for a professional analysis. Ignoring those benefits, I’m not sure what the gripe could possibly be for people who object to this. You are posting to a PUBLIC area, so unless you are copyrighting your words on a regular basis, it becomes public domain by default.

What's the big deal?
A friend of mine was monitoring and recording IRC channels for the purposes of research in 1993! Where’s the news in this?
BTW can you fix the horrible Microsoft apostrophes so that they render correctly on sensible systems?
