LOL!

I saw a brief reference to this but hadn't read a whole story about it.

LOL! I saw that little note on CNN as well. That is funny. Too bad its not a true religion, but likely is a protest against all of this information gathering going on.

Notice how "data mining" about you is legal for businesses to do? Next, that info is getting turned over to Homeland Secuirty -- which would have had to fight giant legal battles to collect the same info if it tried to doso itself. Since the Republicans taught America that this invasion of privacy was OK because "it's just business and profits", now you kow why they have backed the American Marketing Association's right to Data Mine you. Fortunately, an attempt to use this information and tie it to secret complaints against you by your neighbors has come to light and is likely to get squashed in the Senate.

Reminds me of a co-worker - very black and obviously of African descent that put Eskimo on his race box at the university for the same reason. Nobody would challenge him.
