Bah, I knew it.......

I was just so excited to post up something of substance after not finding it.

From the comments:

jonniebrasco 17 March 2011 1:25PM Oh christ, lets just wait for all the leftys and "liberals" to go nuts over this! Chill out lads - why don't you just ignore the waste of time that is social media in the first place?!

Lmao, you can tell he's one of them.

Madness indeed. This is a desperate tactic.

And not just the government. Corporations have been doing this for years. Chat rooms are constantly under surveillance watching trends in the public's attitudes. Think tanks do the same thing to steer conversations in a desired direction. And universities. Psychology study groups watch to better understand human behavior and interfere in experimental ways to observe the outcomes.

My only point here is, let's not just think the government alone is spying on us.
