Alright then, I shall steer the topic to a linux/computer/technology 
link. These same child-torturing, despicable, heathen traitors are also 
making it possible for companies like Google to be able to listen to you 
through your built-in computer microphones:

*I am certain that your elected officials would love to get their bloody 
mitts on the sound bites that Google will be stealing from us. Who 
knows, if Net Neutrality legislation gets passed they might even have 
the bandwidth to force a two-way dialog with you through you computer. 
With the hardware DRM solutions being designed into current and future 
Intel mobos, the commercial software vendors might even be required to 
enable this kind of thing in every bit of software that accesses the net.

If you combine something like that with the topic discussed on this 
board a couple of months ago regarding network router manufacturers 
being required to build in back doors for the feds, this ties in nicely 
with government corruption. Wouldn't it be convenient for those lying, 
traitorous dogs on the 'Hill to have a line into every home in America 
where they could not only spy on which websites visit, but also listen 
in on the argument you are having with your wife or watch how many times 
you spank your child.

"Winston, please sit down. The Domestic Care Liason is on his way. You 
need help, and we are here to help you. Please be calm."

Everything in this country is affected by what happens in Washington. 
Very few of our illustrious leaders understand the first thing about 
technology. All they know is that they want more power over you and me. 
Anything goes is love and war. Make no mistake there is a war on for 
your freedom, and they are not our side. Those who intend to harm us, 
use people like us in the technology industry, to further their goals 
using the cool toys that geeks build for fun.

It is more important for people working in the technology industry than 
anyone else to understand what the members of the ruling classes are 
doing behind our backs. Making use of open source tools is essential to 
guard against multiple tyrannies, including the tyranny of the 
commercial software world and the tyranny on the 'Hill.
