In Defense of Disposable Cell Phones

Posted by timothy on from the possibility-of-bad-vs.-actual-bad dept.

SomeoneYouDontKnow writes: "Disposable cell phones are finally hitting the market, and it sure is refreshing to see a major media outlet like the Los Angeles Times debunk the insane rush toward a surveillence state as promoted by John Ashcroft. Read this column by Dave Wilson for a sensible breath of fresh air." Thoughtful points made here -- the payphone analogy rings true to me.

    Squiggy - Score One

    I remember high school, thought it was such a drag
    And I remember walking around amongst the preppy fags
    And I remember being a Skin. I remember being a Punk
    I remember being told I'd be nothing but a drunk.

    Look at us now, you'll see you're wrong
    Standing together and standing strong
    Score one for the Punks, Oi oi oi
    Score one for the Skins, Oi oi oi

    You're just an average sellout who's part of the machine
    Every day you're told what to think, and dreams are not your dreams
    I hate you for being you, you hate me for being me
    I hate you for being blind, and you hate me for being free
