META-DATA

                              OR

            MINING DATA

The american federal government is collecting our interactions.

THE HORROR! (if you listen to the talking heads)

let me ask.

are you on facebook? do you e-mail? talk on a cell phone?

do you shop in a store or walk in the public square?

do you drive thru stop lights?

guess what-you are being watched.

Yes-you are subjected to perusal

(no-this is not orwell's Big Brother)

it's life and has been going on for a long time.

(the FISA Court has existed since 1978)

and no

no one is listening to your phone conversations

This is a tool-begun by the passing of the patriot act (post 911) to
protect us from bad people.

and

amended and extended  by bi-partisans for years

(republicrats and dempublicans)

This is in violation of your civil liberty?

shut down your facebook. stop e-mailing-turn off your cell phone-put your $ under the mattress

(phone companies and banks have been mining data aboot us for years)

((and for profit-not protection))

go crawl back under your rock.you have the constitutional right to do so.

but

i don't think the quality of that kind of life is worth your stand...

PS: as my wise oldest brother always sez

if you are not doing anything wrong-what are you worried about?

PSS: what? me worry

(alfred e. newman)

PSS: probably aginst "mouth swabs too eh?"

go move to china
