  • Does anyone noticed that guy with the left eye with ATT pic?

    Illuminating truth, isn't it?

  • This guy really needs a fashion advisor.

  • There are NO Constitutional Laws Against it. That's why the American Citizen needs Good Lawyers to protect us against Acts like this. Technology today, is moving so fast that we forget that Constitutional laws to protect us within the use of technology needs to be Updated and put on the books. If not, each new form of technology give "Law Enforcement" The Right to interpret its use ANY WAY THEY SEE FIT. Example: There ARE laws against taping a Land Line. But, NO LAWS against taping a Cell Phone

  • Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage's whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men. - Ayn Rand

  • Human being always trade safety for convenience (and freedom for safety) and we usually get neither. The cloud is not our friend.

  • Its all on a slip n slide downhill now...everything is speeding up....I was harrassed by my work for not answering my mobile on my day off.....10 years ago this was unheard of...Now we are truly slaves...reckon those Amish might be more clued up than we thought!

  • I don't like it.

  • They can't turn off your phone, technically, they can just intercept and cut off your cell service. Just to be clear. I wouldn't want to be wrong and freak less technical people out, like you may have Lionel. If I were you, I would fix this so you don't lose credibility.  Great story though, just a little sensational:-/

  • can you say police state smh
