That's why you have to act normal... at all times. That way they won't know about... stuff that didn't happen.zookeeper said:You know, I've been thinking about this kinda thing ever since US car makers started using the OBD II computers in cars a few years ago. Now lately OnStar has been playing these tear-jerking radio spots about a crying mother who's locked her two infants in the car accidently and the superpowers at the Official OnStar Crisis Command Center (OOCCC for short) save their lives by unlocking the doors. Now I ask you: if a stranger can unlock the doors of your car from outer-f'n-space what else can "they" see or do? Do you want someone you don't even know to see where you are every second of every day? Do you want "them" to know how fast you go to get there? Or where you ate lunch last thursday? I know it sounds paranoid (trust me, I am) but by using the sattelite tracking Detroit built into your late model car (at Uncle Sam's insistence) and using information in the magnetic strip on a common ATM card as well as tracking "cookies" generated by web sites you visit, someone could know everything there is to know about you. They could tell where you are at any given time, what you eat, where you shop, who you are in contact with thru email, what interests you have and how much money you spend and on how you spend that money. They could build a profile of your personal traits and personality and if they felt you were a threat to society or if they just wanted you gone, they could pick an opportune time and place (3 am in the middle of nowhere) to have your car stop via sattelite signal, then the MIB come out, end your life functions and dispose of the body before anyone knows you're gone. Either that, or I need to switch to decaf...
