Umm...Anyone who wants to know anything/everything about anybody in the US (and beyond), be it medical history, allergies, activities, religion, etc. can pull up our personal info in a snap. Much of the personal information we've carelessly given away to the internet, companies, employers, and even our own *trusted* doctors is alreadly long-documented and saved on either The Global Database (Project LUCID- aka "Lucifer Identification" to some), or some other database that *may or may not know* they're actually tied into the main "hub", being Project LUCID (does anyone really expect the "mark of the beast" to be a physically visible "stamp" or "tattoo" in this age or in the future?).
Integration. Databases. Collecting information and typing it into a computer (or speaking it, or even *thinking* it in years not far off- as now it has been proven that human thoughts can trigger the correct electrical impulses to spell words on the computer screen of a parapalegic). We're all giving our lives away to whoever (at whatever level)desires it. This is the Internet in its purist form; providing folks with information we want while fulfilling its inherent mission- Information gathering on the activities and interests of the general population.
The whole idea is to gather as much info about as many people as possible, put them into the database, and exploit that knowledge as the "powers that be" see fit. Look at the enormous trend in "integration" of electronics (which carry, usually by our own input, more info than anyone needs to know about a "free citizen"). not only do we have the wonder of cell-phones, but now our phones are capable of more intense data-transmission than ever, like pics, music, personal organizers/schedules, internet access, and more.
Integration is a great thing in many ways, but has even more potential for abuse. how long does it take for someone to "crack" a new video game? an hour? A day or two tops, before *somebody* finds a way around the "security measures". if 13 y/olds can hack into the FBI/CIA (whatever the case was a couple years back), imagine what not only the criminal underground, but our own government can do (yeah, freaky that a pre-pubescent cracked the Gov, but many others are in place on the gameboard who can do much more than that). Satellites can see 7-15ft *underground* (or more) if told where to look (and most sats are *very* old by now). United States Marine Commanders are quoted as saying they *knew* for a fact Osama Bin-Laden was less than 2 miles from their heavily armed and well-equipped position, and were told by the US government to "hold position" as he slipped away. we let him go. on purpose. small example.
basically, we're (with or without realizing it) feeding our lives to a global database that knows no nationality or country or race. "chipping" the kids might sound like a good idea in case of kidnapping, but what happens when "chip-reader/writers" hit the black market? anyone with $10 bucks worth of crap from Radio Shack could scan you and know everything about you in that chip, *or* add or subtract binary to their liking. Same goes for terrorists, governments, religious organizations, the entire Scientific/Medical community and more. get a chip and you might be saved from Argintinian kidnappers, but all of your "vitals" and more could just as easily be read by multitudes of satellites in space and/or radio/microwave/cell towers anywhere on earth at any time without you knowing. instead of bumping into you to steal your wallet like a pick-pocket, i could be in another country and steal your account numbers, passwords, etc. as well as your medical history and the birthday of your firstborn child.
Pretend (ahem) we're trying to build an Empire. Not just a national empire, but global. what, in this day and age, makes the most sense as the means to such an end? Electronics, transmissions (invisible to the eye), massive information channels (i.e. the Internet) and computer "servers", "hosts", and the databases they all create
