So What's New?

I received the following message from BlogSpot this morning. At the time of this posting, I don't see a BlogSpot notice posted on my page, nor do I know anything more than what it says in the message.

I don't intend to do  more than  post this, so if my blog disappears you will know that I some way violated their rules and that I don't intend to do anything more to placate them. I'm sure all of my readers already know that Google, all world governments, millions of hackers, and every spammer on the planet, have already learned everything there is to know about us, so what's new?
