Well, the truth is that happens on every Web site you visit. Every site has an access_log (though some logs, say, on AOL, aren't necessarily made available to the person(s) who created the Web site, but are instead used by their online service) that tracks everything a visitor does there. (We've certainly been quite open with the fact that the forum has such a log. Though the only time we ever examine it is if there's some sort of problem that we're trying to trace.) The only difference here is that info is being displayed in real time for anyone who might want to check it out..
