It's my site so I've plugged it. :) The surveillance technology issue is particularly disturbing.

From the page: "Did you know that law enforcement officials can demand that your cell phone company activate the microphone in your phone remotely? Your cell then becomes a roving microphone recording events around you whether or not the phone is on. Additionally, cell phones track your location through communication with the nearest tower. As long as you have it with you and turned on, your location can be identified."

This is the reason I would never want a car with OnStar. Someone with the right access could easily track your whereabouts and unlock your vehicle at any time. There is an easy fix for cell phone bugging that utilizes the microphone though. As far as cell phones go anything can be changed at the software level by any group with adequate resources.

From the page: "The ability to invade our homes, cars, and mobile devices + an administration that manipulates the law to its own ends = a situation we need to start getting loud about. Very loud. So loud it won't take a stealth microphone to hear us in Washington."

The article I read was about...well, you'll see when you click the link. But what a lovely idea behind the entire blog - I will be visiting here often. From the page: "Six Hours A Week Is: One woman's approach to our civil liberties emergency in the U.S. I am still the law-abiding "good citizen" who works, shops too much, sometimes volunteers, keeps up with current events, and watches too much TV. But I now spend six hours each week researching, communicating about, and advocating the preservation of our basic freedoms."
