I pay to be spied on?

It's kind of like your husband abandoning you and then using money from your paycheck to put a private investigator on your ass, and to buy you a new car with an internal voice activated microphone and GPS monitoring.  "Yes dear, just put that bill in the pile and I will pay it. Of course, I will pay the bills in your name first, so that your credit rating remains higher than mine.  No problem....." And of course, he tells you, "I am not abandoning you."

ECHELON

"ECHELON was capable of interception and content inspection of telephone calls, fax, e-mail and other data traffic globally through the interception of communication bearers including satellite transmission, public switched telephone networks (which carry most Internet traffic) and microwave links.'"

symbolism:

The people paid their governments for this? To be spied on? And to be convinced, "we'd rather fight them over there than here." If I hear anyone say that again I may punch them in the face. War is bullshit. John Dear taught me that global thermonuclear war is not thinkable. It is insanity.

Feeling a little angry today Jen?
Need to take a picture of me on a leash, and publish it with this post.
Ug. Need to go out and have a good time.  Later.....
