That is traitorous speech. The state has no right to know your
business, legal or not.

The more they know the more they control.

OK, Here's your big chance - Explain the logic and fear underlying your
conclusion: "The more they know the more they control".

Scroll down to the big blue meatball:

Well, Let's see... you didn't copy & paste the article

Yeah, isn't it a pain in the ass that others don't like to
play fast and loose with copyrighted material?

and only copy &
pasted the link. At least you didn't dissappoint us - I told you (and
everyone else)

Adequate proof, I'm sure, to a blowhard like you.

that you are wholly incapable of articulating an intelligent
response in support of your kook assertions.

So, we'll call this a "Do-Over" because that link didn't explain the logic
and fear underlying your conclusion: "The more they know the more they
control". Here's opportunity #2 to prove you're more than a mere liberal
parrot. I'll even rephrase it to make it easier to understand by someone of
your limited "copy & paste" capabilities: Why should I, or anyone I know,
be the least bit concerned about RFID?

For the same reason you should be concerned about all the rest
of the information "collected" about you -- it's mostly bull**** and
will be interpreted by people who do not have your best interests at
heart.

Example -- my ex's info was compromized in the recent
Lexis-Nexis ****up. They sent her a letter explaining what she should
do. It arrived in my mailbox. She has not lived here in thirteen
years.

We're still good friends, so I let her know right away.

She has lived at five addresses since we separated. I have not
changed my address for thirty-five years. When I went to a couple of
sites and looked myself up, I was listed in various databases at all
five of the addresses she's been at. So if I look for a job and tell
the prospective employer I've lived here for 35 years, and the
employer spends fifteen minutes in the palces I looked (all very
common), how is that going to affect my chances of getting the job? Of
course, he should not be doing such loose-ass research on me, but I'll
never know. I'll just hear some corporate crap about "not an exact
match for the skillset we're looking for."

I've also gotten my credit report and found various
non-authorized corporations looking into my credit history by claiming
me as a "customer." Completely illegal, or, at best based on yet more
mistaken information, transposed SSNs or other sloppiness on the part
of the data aggregators.

If you aren't concerned yet, on the basis of just these
trivial examples, then, as they say, "If ignorance is bliss, you must
be orgasmic."
