  1. Re:Anti-globalisation peeps are next. on HomeSec Blacklist to be Available to Private Companies · · Score: 1

    This really scares me. I am confident that such technologies, as soon as they are entrenched, will start being used against anti-corp, anti free-trade groups rather quickly. Once they run out of Arab's with H-1 visas they are going to go after people with subscriptions to ADBUSTERS.
    and you just made the list ;-)
