maybe it's just a intermediate step, soften the people up under the pretense of terrorists, think-of-the-cildren, etc. the direction humans are heading, won't be too long before we're all chipped for tracking, the credit card [or any other form of money transaction] is done through this chip. Keep the people fed and entertained and they'll never revolt!
it's good you don't trust me, trust is earned.. and i have not done that. what do i have to gain?, not much... maybe a wider spread in the lack of trust of govt and other parties with vested interests [directly and indirectly]. but yes, it is very possible. the Chinese or any other organization... including govt, corp and shady orgs. call me paranoid, but we're not told what we're not supposed to know
i agree, need a public ass kicking debate, show the population what's going on. but having a debate is one thing, getting the knowledge out there is another. all the X religion leaders have to do is pull out the faith card, and all the believes totally ignore anything that challenges their world view.
but that's never going to happen, religion in one form or another is just a tool used by the powers that be to control/influence the public.
some good viewing material:
Richard Dawkins - "The Root Of All Evil"

"The God Who Wasn't There"

"Zeitgeist"

the patent system isn't broken, it's doing exactly what it's designed to do... just not what the public was told it was to do. it just one more form of control to keep the elite, elite.
i heard about a similar story in a Brisbane school [i live in Brisbane], where a student spoke the truth about the wrong doing at his school, but used careful wording to cover his ass from defamation and what not some of the teachers/"officials" were less then impressed and almost got the student kicked out. he wrote a draft letter addressed to the local and state papers/news stations [and the "a current affair" and "today tonight" crap too]. after reading the draft the teachers/"officials" changed their minds rather quickly.
best defense is a better offense
wish you the best of luck

eBay should be able to run their business as they see fit, but then that leaves it open to collusion and other kinds of ugly. grey area, any in site?
presume FUD until given proof. and check the source of any "proof" too, never trust those who stand to gain
