Somebody's Watching Me (and You and You and You and You)

I once thought about writing a screenplay about something like this ... if, you know, I knew how to write a screenplay.  Instead I'll just tell you two about it.  (Hi Kerr!  Hi Mom!)

Much of the technology developed to make our lives more convenient can easily be re-purposed to make our lives monitored and tracked -- cell phones, bar codes, credit cards, GPS, Netflix, IP addresses, the internet etc. etc.  That doesn't mean we shouldn't use it, but we should be aware of how it can be used against us.
