    PLEASE can the admin prohibit embedded videos - if I want to see them I can follow a link - they are a serious waste of bandwidth as well as yet another privacy busting info delivered to google etc - if you want a Capititalist view on the obnoxious use of tracking see 12 page special report in the Economist 13-19th Sept 2014

      i am not certain but i understood video embedding to take precious little bandwidth .... don't make me laugh about privacy unless you do not use any form of computing or telephony ... in which case you would not be posting here
      According to the best estimates of astronomers there are at least one hundred billion galaxies in the observable universe.

        the embedding takes little of the forum's bandwidth but a link is established to google etc which bandwidth use hits the recipient (ie ME) - yes I can and now have blocked such knowing how to turn them back on if wanted - re privacy your public tracking is fine by me but not everyone wants to provide google etc with more profile info -I don't need to be patronised in my use of the web
