Nothing happens here...

By StuartDB

People are amazed at this flower bomb!

Just thought I'd use some of the empty rhetoric that the media liars seem so keen on inflicting upon us.  OK so I'm having an annoying day after trying to do some research on the Daily Mail website.  I know there are more reliable places to do research (Dandy, Beano, My Little Pony website) but I saw the original story in that dreadful 'shock, horror' fakenewspaper.

The DM website, and those of other newspapers who you hoped would be more honest, are crammed with click bait, fake stories dropped in amongst news items and misleadingly labelled to confuse the reader and trick him/her/other to reading them.  

Publishers sell advertising depending on the traffic their sites generate and the more clicks the better.  These 'trick' sites embed cookies on your computer that then track your movements on the web and sell your data to companies who use it to send you tailor made emails, web links and goodness knows what else.  

I really do believe this sneaky surveillance has got out of hand and governments are now powerless to get it back under control.  Actually they are one of the biggest buyers of your data, one of the biggest purveyors of it and one of the biggest collectors too!  Now is that true or am I creating some false news?  Hmmm....

Today's Blip is the cherry blossom in the garden and it's probably a week earlier than usual.  Obviously caused by global warming or Brexit or just more false news?
