The Democrat takes the demographic information and turns it over to their advertisers. The advertisers then determine how to focus their ads to the groups.


The question for me is; "does the Democrat sell the information?" Maybe not.

Here is an example? (Tongue in cheek but for real)

I sign up for the Alice service and give them my demographic information. I am a male 58 years old.

Alice sends me an email asking if in am in need of toilet paper and diapers.

No I don't need diapers yet. Maybe in a few more years. Smile.

How does that keep it free?  Curious minds want to know.

So what do you have to do to read it now. I didn't see a place to get a user name and password. Just a form asking for user name and password.
