Beware Of The Malgorythms

When you go online, in search of thrills sublime
you won't know the digital footprint you leave
until the next time you are faced with a adverts
for products that you didn't think you wanted.

These adverts are what make your journey free
at the point you set out to it. With being a consumer
and there not only no such thing as 'a free lunch'.
When you most think that your life is 'free'
it will be what marketing departments munch on.

Mutuality Through Exchange?

The uncertainty in all markets is the level of mutuality.
The less assured the level of mutuality with each transaction 
the more closed the market actually is, 
compared with how open it appears to be..... 
                                                                   
When the assumption is left to become an absolute
it creates and perpetuates hidden gains for the vendor
 at the buyers expense. Such gains must remain hidden 
for the market to not get openly labelled 'rigged' or 'broken'....
