Hi there! If I buy a computer on Amazon from a trusted brand like Apple or Lenovo, will they keep my name and address and connect that information to the serial numbers of the computer’s parts? I’m especially worried about this when I visit various websites that track serial numbers from my PC while browsing or when using gaming platforms like Steam. Would it be wiser to purchase it from a physical store using cash, or a second-hand computer from ebay instead?

    You’re foolishly optimistic. I guarantee you that that shit most certainly is done. Doubt of tracking is trust into shit you truly can’t know.

    Tell you what though, I’ll give you 50/50 on parasitic Corp vampires doing the same the way you talk about it but Amazon, FBInc. and eBay are both definately doing it. That’s not even a gamble either.

    I wonder if you can’t tell who/what is definitely doing the metatracker of all. For reference, that ain’t that narcissistic jackass; that’s actual word use referring although I wouldn’t have any difficulty considering them to be unified in all objectives, but I’d be all snarky and say he’s really the Public Agent. Like the way he claims to be a journalist with awkward shoddy “charisma” (as-in, thorough lack thereof).

    If you just truly can’t think if it, I’ll help you out and tell you to ask Edward. He knows.
