All weirded out about this, are we?

Sept. 20, 2007 - The nation's biggest telecommunications companies, working closely with the White House, have mounted a secretive lobbying campaign to get Congress to quickly approve a measure wiping out all private lawsuits against them for assisting the U.S. intelligence community's warrantless surveillance programs.

Blah blah blah, yeah, everybody all upset. Come on, honey, calm down. You were thinking your so-called personal information was somehow, like, personal or something? It isn't, it hasn't been for quite some time, maybe it never was. Hell, I'm old enough to remember party lines. That didn't mean a bunch of teenagers yakking, that meant everybody on the block used the same line. You think the NS freakin' A is scary? You should have seen that weird lady two doors down.

What we should all do, I'm saying here, is quit obsessing over how much they know about us and start wondering why we know so pathetically little about them.
