    Uberfuhrer Brown to track our movements

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7877182.stm

    The government is compiling a database to track and store the international travel records of millions of Britons.

    Computerised records of all 250 million journeys made by individuals in and out of the UK each year will be kept for up to 10 years.
    I watched a lecture a few years back by a man called Barry Smith. He was a Christian, lecturing on the end times. Whether you are a Christian, FSM, or atheist was irrelevant to the lecture as he was foretelling lots of things that would happen. As the years have progressed a lot of what he predicted has come true, which I always think about when it happens.

    Cashless society. ID cards. Movements tracked.
    I don't want to get into a debate about is there a God or anything. But when the government pulls stunts like this, it is a best depressing, at worst down right scary.

    If Barry Smith is right about that, then he also predicts RFID chips to be inserted into humans to replace credit cards, and mass uprisings against the state.

    But then again you'd need some sort of global economic crisis for that to happen so I guess we'll be ok.

          This kind of thing will never happen. Our best defence against it will always be the incompetence of those setting it up and/or running it. Maybe the desire is there for it and the conspiracy theorists are right ; It makes no difference. Stupidity is the norm now, people are not competent enough to carry out anything 'big' effectively.

            I've miles
            And miles
            Of files
            Pretty files of your forefather's fruit
            and now to suit our
            great computer
            You are magnetic ink


            I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be.

            There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
            Face piles
            And piles
            Of trials
            With smiles.



            It riles them to believe
            that you perceive
            the web they weave
            And keep on thinking free.

              The incompetence of those running it is the thing to be afraid of. Bad data and it's abuse will get us shot.
              How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  OK so my duplicate thread needs some posts. Mine has a better title, I am infinity better looking than the OP of the other thread, and posting in this thread is guaranteed to make you prosperous and give you more self esteem, so go on. Post. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOWW!
