<Got something to hide?>

Another Big Brother doomsday scenario. It's not like it isn't happening already, by the way. Ever hear of proxy servers?

Paul, >>>Got something to hide?<<<

The point is, if big brother is evil, he will do what has to do. If he didn't have hidden cameras, he would be watching through a peep hole. If he didn't have listening devises, he would put his ears up against a thin wall. If he didn't have laser guided missiles to hit you with, he would use a hammer.

If you don't answer his questions, he will make up answers and get someone to testify falsely - or he would hire some expensive lawyers to do the same thing.

The trouble is, if big brother is evil, preventing him from getting his hands on tools that he could use to further his evil ends is almost impossible. It is like trying to herd cats.

Instead, we should be watching the evil big brother (using the latest technologies) and educating the masses vis a vis that which is evil.
