Getting ready to leave on our trip, I thought it might be prudent to notify VISA of our travel plans., since neither of us had explicitly done so. But when I gave the relevant card information, the computerized voice said, "I see you will be [going overseas] from[date to date]." They must have mined that from the fact that we paid for the tickets through VISA. Still, it's kind of scary that they would assimilate that information. I wonder what else of our activities are being tracked, by credit card companies, online services, and government. And how long they keep the info.
