Has anyone ever noticed that the people most worried about the state spying on them are the very people the state - not to mention all other people - are LEAST likely to give a damn about?
Astute observation, though I am wondering if you have any point, or are in fact trying to say anything at all.
Oracle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaShe allegedly also proclaimed Socrates to be the wisest man in Greece, to which Socrates said that, if so, this was because he alone was aware of his own ignorance.
I think you have missed the point. I'm not so much worried about the state spying on me. If I were, I would continue about my life, I have an enjoyable one, many things to do, I'm just fine. What I am more concerned about, is you, my fellow countrymen. The person that might not be as well informed. For it is true, I am like the vagabond philosopher, harmless to all.
I think those who aren't aware of how the system works, those who don't understand the real intent of Facebook, they are the ones that should probably listen up. But then, I expect to be attacked by those who would prefer to think that the government is stripping civil rights and civil liberties to "protect" them rather than to control them and keep itself safe from the people, rather than keep the people safe. However, I think I have done my work here. The direction this thread has taken has indeed proven fruitful. People here are not complete dullards now, are they?
