I was reading the fishing thread where this site came up and didn't want to derail.

You enter all kinds of personal information, for free and the sites privacy policy says they can do anything they want with the data. Fantastic.

Your IP and email are then associated with your age, your sex, weight, race, sexual preference, etc....

Didn't you think it odd that they wanted to know how often you visit porn sites? It's not to set how much your worth, but to sell your data to porn sites.

Race....the race field doesn't change your worth no matter what you choose. Then why collect it. To sell.

How often do you gamble...sold!
 
Zipcode...Sold
How often you watch TV...sold
Are you bald...sold

Marketing genius thought of this one. If someone asked you for all this info in an email you would never give it out. Your income....
 
i put a fake zip code in because i always do and my spam e-mail i should of thought before i did it usallyquizes are for fun i have learnt my lesson the hard way don't trust the interent.
 
Humanforsale? The amount they tell you that you are worth is the amount their buyers could make from marketing crap to people silly enough to give away their personal information in exchange for nothing.
 
I never put real info on that kind of stuff *shrug*

As far as I.P address, any site you visit can catch that.
 
Right...any sight can catch your IP and also place a cookie. But humanforsale
collects two pages of personal data first.

Or how about this....
"Under confidentiality agreements, HumanForSale may match user information with third party data."

They can bump your data up against other databases of information and cross reference to find out who you are. A company I worked for 10 years ago did the same thing with databases for marketing, and they didn't have a tenth of the info on the databases that you are providing them.

It may be all a big conspiracy theory...but I'm just posting this as a heads up to what info you give out.

They didn't write the program as a fun diversion for people on the Web. It took time and money. That and it's owned by Carstens Amarel, an ad and marketing company.
