Welcome

So, our little spying device - the thing that track who visits our happy little site here - tells us that some friends from the District of Columbia have stopped by to see what we're all about. Well, welcome! Sit a spell, and do some reading. Leave some comments. We're glad you're here.

It's way scarier than that, guys.

Believe me when I tell you: if any part of the federal apparatus wants to read this site, or any other, or for that matter any packet of information that is transmitted anywhere on the internet, they will do so in real time, with impunity, and your little site counter won't even know it.

If you were a fascist police state, wouldn't it be a lot more fun to know not only what a given web site says, but also to know who is reading it and from where and how often?

It's trivially easy with the right access.

That is, ostensibly, why we have laws on the books that tell us that if the government has that information, they can't use it against us in a court of law without going through proper procedures. Now, since we live in a country that is sharpening it's fascist teeth, that's not quite the safety net it once was.
