and has only gotten worse with new technology. "Big Brother is watching you" was no myth, and still holds true today as evidenced by FACTS.
I know for a fact that even here, in our DU community, some of our posts are monitored. I know it's fact because some of MY posts have been monitored, writing about my long buried past and knowledge of certain notorious 1%er Biker Gangs and White Supremacist Gangs.
The *reason* I know is because the knowledge was over 25 years ago, I cut all ties, moved several States away, have a VERY SMALL CIRCLE OF FRIENDS who know NOTHING about my past, but I have been stopped and questioned about some things by the local LEOs here.
Keep in mind the fact that I had never been arrested for any kind of criminal activity due to these gangs or anything else involving them, then explain to me just HOW the local LEOs here would know ANYTHING about me and my past. It doesn't bother me, as I have nothing to hide & nothing to tell, but the question still lingers: HOW would they have known, other than monitoring posts here? I have not even mentioned the gangs by name in YEARS, I just say like I did above: "notorious 1%er Biker Gangs and White Supremacist Gangs".
For all that I know, I *could* just have my 
on too tight, too...
Your posts are always informative, enlightening, educational and, most importantly, appreciated. Thanks for your tireless efforts at keeping due dilligence on Democracy!
Peace,

PS: It took me a while to write this due to household distractions. When I started, I was the 5th rec, and there were no comments! It will be interesting to see where it is when I hit "post".
