They are watching you :)

God they know everything :P

Heh, I don't think the pizza places would have access, but a valid point.

[Gokuma]

At least not until the company behind the matrix buys one out.

[pilottobombadier]

actually, isn't that kind of data access only supposed to be legally available to, say law enforcement and intelligence agencies - after they've recieved a court approved warrant to look into it (not like they usually do anyway, but one can always hope)?

[Gokuma]

Law enforcement and intelligence agences don't need warrants or shit for justification anymore thanks to the Patriot Act. Our library records that I think were still managed to be protected during even McCarthyism aren't anymore. Librarians refusing to turn over records are even being legally threatened. And best of all with google's recent acquiring of content of major libraries, their completely unethical record keeping and tracking, and their employment of government spooks, the feds can immediately know specifically what people are even looking for within a book if they choose to.

Heh, the pizza place I call most often knows my name and address, but that's because I've called them before from that number.

[Bucket]

Uh, that's how it's SUPPOSED to work. Thanks for playing.

Song quotes now, eh? I got one for ya: The man's too big / The man's too strong...

I think this one's very relevent to today. Even though the song is 20 years old.

Unfortunately, Bush's puppetmasters like him too much to deny him either safety or liberty.

[Sharessa]

Yeah, but he doesn't have to give up anything.
