I shewd EFF's link to an English major. He responded, "Come now, they've been spying on us for years."

The big news is that in rationalizing it we will develop a schism across the class line. Many of us are so poor, unlike the ranks of the increasing elite, that we'd gladly sell our privacy for coin to eat.

Build the money machine faster. How else are we to build gittip for the homeless without anonymous coin ?

The worst case example is where freedom of privacy paradoxically conflicts with liberty from privacy (law), involving Twitter accounts like @NeedADebitCard.

I'm sure most senators simply react to such peculiar "rational economic behavior". Is it altruistic ? Is it a hoax ? Is it a honeypot ? Is it stupid ? How do you build a political-economy around this? Around communities that can print most of their toys at a local "3DPrintBox" ? And international mobile targeting hackers ?
