Big Brother Will Be Watching You In Florida
An anonymous reader submits "The Florida Times Union is running a story about the city of Manalapan putting up cameras and an automatic optical recognition system to check the license plates of every car to drive through town. As usual the article spins the system as something positive to battle crime. Just one step close to Eric Arthur Blair's vision of 1984."
All you have to do is drive into town in reverse!!!
For a slashdotter, that means not buying anything from an ebay seller who lives there.
How can we continue to believe in a just universe and freedom to eat crackers if we have no ale?
The submitter is just a little too clever for their own good. Maybe he should have respected Mr. Orwell's privacy, and not leaked his real name. Now he's at risk for identity theft. ;)
Fortunately, in Florida, Big Brother is 87, confined to a Rascal scooter, and has very poor eyesight.
You know what?

I agree with your ipse dixit despite your ad hominem, although prima facie evidence has indicated ad infinitum (as you noted a priori) that Slashdotters are cannot post sans such phrases a fortiori, being that said phrases are the de facto lingua franca of condescending morons et cetera and it is easier to insert such phrases than to begin with tabula rasa.
Handy list of Latin phrases said morons use. Now you, too, can sound like a condescendant!
True story.
Actually, they ARE in there. I microwaved a stack of license plates and my microwave just about exploded. Obviously the goverment trying to hide the evidence.
