Anybody own a GM vehicle with onstar? Guess who's satellite that goes through? The US Government, and do you think that they don't keep track of who's where? Out east we have mucho tolls, especially in Jersey so there's the thing called "easypass" which is stuck the windshield and when you pass through the toll, it debits your account. They can time you from toll a to toll b, and if the time is less than it should be, you can get a ticket! What do you think it would take to hack into a government satellite? It's already a scare if we've thought of it, the hackers have already been there done that... CR

I don't know how many of you have ever been to the NSA HQ in MD but they have more antennae and dishes there than I have ever seen anywhere. All our emails are monitored. All our phone calls are monitored.(now they plan to read our mail!!!) There are cameras everywhere (including overpasses) Our local TV news can show traffic problems on I95 in any section you might want to see and these cameras are also monitored by the CT State Police. You may also want to give a thought to the EZ Pass used on many toll roads as your entire trip can be retraced including speed and time between toll stations. I'm sure you all know that our intelligence satellites are able to see what brand of underwear we are wearing if it is out on the line. They say that one of the great things about the USA is that it is an open society...it certainly is to anyone who wants to look or listen.
