So there I was bashing around the net looking for stuff and I clicked on this link....

Anyway my ftp program kicked into action and I was logged into a ftp server that immediately gave me a 'Denied Access' warning...

I saw a welcome message in a text file so I thought I would start there..

The text above was the

welcome

message in the welcome.msg text file...

Well I feel so goddam welcome after reading that!

Better watch it; they'll see your Thailand IP and think you're a member of that Malaysian terror group trying to hack their computers.

Ah well, at least the Congress was wise enough to subdue the two of the more egregious provisions on the "Patriot" Act. Basically now you have to convince a judge that the person you want to monitor is a) a threat and b) trying to evade detection before you can tap their lines, etc. Also you can't confiscate library and business records now just because you're a terror agent and think it's a good idea. Judge has to OK that too. Not perfect but better.

As for delinquents from Thailand, I don't know what the provisions for that are.

It's ok I have my tin foil hat on now (Black model) so they can't detect me..

Lucky I have a 17" with a backlit keyboard so I can still use the internet from under my bed....

Actually, you can now buy real products for all your EMF-paranoia needs.
From silver mesh shirts, hats, and gloves, to full faraday cage canopies for beds.

Catering to the crazy... it's the newest trend.

those work especially well against black helicopters, but I've found undercover agent automobiles aren't so easily fooled.

Now you've got me all paranoid again.. And I'd just got comfy under my bed...
