They know everyone who posts on Free Republic. They started compiling those lists during the Obama administration. I took a screen shot of an Obama org trying to put tracking software on my computer with a Free Republic thread about recipes in the background.
"They know everyone who posts on Free Republic."
I think most of us assumed that.
Like at work, I don't send any emails that I wouldn't want everyone in the company to read. I post mostly generic stuff here. I'm an old guy, I'm not even sure what day it is...
