Daily Kos Revealing Personal Info of EVERY user at the site

Every single user of Daily Kos can publicly be tracked down.  If you've been blogging on company time, you are nailed.  I can find out your IP number, figure out who you are, when you logged in, when you logged out, etc... How?  Markos Moulitsas is giving me the information.

Here's how.

If you go to Daily Kos, you will see at the bottom "Daily Kos homepage."  To the immediate left is his sitemeter signal which Mr. Veal referenced in my final diary in which I left the site on my own volition.  It's a green square.

Now on the left is everything you need to know about visitors of the site.  If you click on "Who's On" you can have 90% of what you need to know to track anyone down.

Kos uses Sitemeter (which also shows Daily Kos lost over 70% of its viewers from October to the end of December) for his propaganda purposes. It's the most inaccurate measure of website traffic for if the site has 500,000 visits in a day, Markos himself may have been 1000 of them with Democratic Luntz not far behind.  That's the one reason Kos loves the troll hunting spectacles. It drives up "visits" as the same people keep hitting new pages in the hidden comments, dead threads, etc...  And if you didn't know Jotter's real statistics or the flaws of sitemeter, you could fall for this propaganda.

But the bigger story here is how you can track any Daily Kos user down using this information.  All, courtesy of Markos who has no respect for his users.

    Even Peeder knew to get rid of sitemeter.

    BTW - I asked for any Real life info to be deleted which Jack did. Nothing more. That's business is done. No hard feelings, FSZ served my purpose which was promote this blog.
