 # This makes sense

I actually read the article mentioned: 

"In 2021, a small conservative Catholic blog named The Pillar reported that Jeffrey Burrill, the secretary general of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, was a regular user of Grindr. The publication reported that Burrill “visited gay bars and private residences while using a location-based hookup app” and described its source as “commercially available records of app signal data obtained by The Pillar.”"

And started changing my #adID and even told a friend who couldn't have cared less. 

It's probably one of the things that got me targeted by the #MI5 and #police and show how *such a small setting* is like 80% important to them.

(note: the most engagement i got on #nostr is when i told youz to change and delete your adID proving the Feds on here don't want you taking such a simple step to protect your family and privacy)
