The few times I've tried PRYING on the internet, precious little has filtered through, beyond tons of sites willing to charge for promised scoop beyond belief. Not that long ago in my computing, when I had no clue I would actually type, "What do I do now?" and stare at the screen waiting for an answer.
But more important than my lack of knowledge has been my steady concluding that cameras are everywhere, my data is collected everywhere down to the cash register, and that much of all of everybody's data is useless.
The furor over Verizon (and all the Not-named) is laughable. Every day on the local news robbers are shown from surveillance video. Apparently only convenience store robbers believe they can walk around anywhere without being data collected.

Just heard HANNITY whining about OBAMAs supposed hypocrisy, how he swore he would never do this and how he griped when ONLY THREE got waterboarded. Oh, just like ONLY FOUR dead in Benghazi compared to RAYGUNs 299 dead in Beirut.
John WAYNE wingnuts lack PERSPECTIVE and so do the other current yammerers, no matter what comfort you (local wingnut) take from gaining numbers from them.
You KNOW you're just grasping. You'd be happy if the person was Shrub! (& the activities ARE Shrub's.)
