Don't forget that time honored right-wing mantra, "If you don't have anything to hide, you have nothing to be afraid of."

Sure heard that one a lot between late 2001 and the 2008 elections.

If it takes a chainsaw to get into your house, you're probably a terrorist.

"potential indicators of terrorist activities."

Why not "indicators of potential terrorist activities?"

If it takes a chainsaw to get into your house, you're probably a terrorist.

or not paying your dues to Big Pharma.

And by "dues" I mean protection money.

Switching SIM cards is a definite signal of illegal activities.. usually involving a stolen phone. As for IP masking and such - FUCK the FBI.

If they don't want the rectal exam they're likely hiding something.

Crap. Does this mean I have to reveal my junk?

#9 it's going to be standard ops to lift your sack from now on. if you're not hiding anything then it shouldn't be a problem.

What wrong with this is obvious. Perhaps people do have an internet connection at home, yet they go to internet cafe's because simply people like to be with other people and socialize. Even if people are sitting alone. And maybe people pay cash for thing because believe it or not boys and girls not everyone has a bank account or a credit or a debit card. Poor people typically do not have those things and they use cash. And don't tell me that then all poor people ought to be suspected terrorist because the now dead Bin Laden if he were an American could be said to be one of the 1%, a big rich terrorist. And yes privacy is important and important to everyone because that has to to with liberty, freedom and the pursuit of happiness. It is supposed to be the meaning behind the words in the national anthem 'the land of the free and the home of the brave' because it takes being brave to be free. And if this FBI list is where we a as a country today, what exactly are they defending? It's not liberty, it's not freedom, it's not bravery. How about paranoia?

Hey you know what I can't think of many legitimate uses for? Anonymous proxies.
