Welcome to today’s proof that the government “controls the horizontal and the vertical,” as the old TV show, the Outer Limits, used to say. I have all of this crap turned off. They pushed it through to everyone in the country anyway.
Take this as a reminder that every place you go, every text you send, every phone call you make, every email you send or receive, every web site you visit, every social media post, every thing you purchase by credit card… it’s all tracked and recorded. All someone in the bowels of the FBI or CIA has to do is put your name into a web app, and they can see it all, no warrant required. Edward Snowden told us about these systems a decade ago, and nothing has changed, except that he now has to spend the rest of his life in hiding.
