"In this paper I argue that today, fear of technology mainly emerges from a lack of meaning surrounding the technology revolution. Present technology is developing without a sound cultural framework that could give technology a sense beyond mere utilitarian considerations. Frightening stories then end up being a privileged way to incorporate technology into a meaningful context. However, fear is not the sole emotion that can enable integration of new concepts into mental schemes, two other powerful emotional forces should be considered: wonder and curiosity."

"Young men are affected slightly more than young women. People experiencing severe anxiety or depression can develop problems with paranoid feelings, but the most extreme forms of paranoia are usually seen in people diagnosed with schizophrenia or bi-polar disorder. These illnesses can cause people to lose touch with reality, a disorder known as phychosis."

Libertarianism IS an IDIOTology.

Oh, I forgot. Doctor (say that reverentially) Ron Paul is God. All others are false prophets. Libertarianism is not an ideology, it's the true neo-Nietschean religion. Praise be to the everlasting mediocrity of Ayn Rand and Ron Paul.

There's nothing "unconstitutional" going on. The census is constitutionally required. Double checking the mapping of the US at the same time is a savings to the nation. It's not like the existence of your house & all the plans for it aren't already public record.

Personally I'm far more concerned with programs that monitor conversations, or technologies that penetrate the walls of a house in order to monitor activity inside. Knowing that the government is aware that my property is within a specific set of spacial coordinates is nothing of concern for me.

When they come for the troublemakers in the middle of the night they want to make sure they go to the right locations. That's all.
If I got a dime every time I read an ad with purloined photos I could retire right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QjS0AbRpAo Andenzi, izimvo zakho ziyaba.

That's right. But remember, wearing a tinfoil hat will blind the satellite cameras with reflections from the Sun and corrupt their GPS data.
