If you're worried about privacy now, you're about a decade too late. Move off the grid if you don't like it.

I had the dentist remove all my fillings last year. Several teeth have since fallen out, but at least Alpha Centauri can no longer hunt me down and remove my genitals!

I listened to the whole thing, and I can tell you that the technical information he presented about smart meters was entirely factually accurate.

Police have been using good old fashioned dumb meters to bust pot growers for many years though.

And if you don't like this, you REALLY won't like anything related to the Internet, and you especially won't like the NSA.

Regarding the internet, the novelty has long since worn off. It's way too mainstream. We need an "alternate internet"--something completely new and edgy.
