spyware

what is everyone's problem with spyware?

so what if on a computer miles and miles away on 1 record in a massive database there is a line with your name on saying 'you downloaded this on the_date'

i have no problem with spyware... the term spyware is too paranoid, ppl think they are being spied on, they are just being logged automatically on a database miles and miles away like every other john doe
