Being Watched

There are so many weird things in our world these days. One of them is all the digital machinery that watches us. I agree that this is problematic in general, but, seriously folks, what do you have to hide?

I imagine an NSA officer watching me:

"Oh. He picked his nose again."
"Oh my, he ate eggs for breakfast."
"Oh look, he's sitting in front of his computer."
"He's at Starbucks with his computer."
"He's at the library with his computer."
"What is he doing on his computer I wonder! Let me hack in!"
"Oh, he's emailing a student."
"Now he's looking at cats."
"Now he's emailing a friend."
"More cats."
"Emailing a professor."
"Cats with lasers now."
"What secrets is he hiding in his Google Drive I wonder!"
"A poem."
"A poem that rhymes."
"An angsty poem."
"A checklist."
"A to-do list."
"A list of random thoughts."
"A list of random words."

That's probably the most danger we can be in: boring these sneaky sneaksters so much that they want to off us or destroy our digital presence.

Anyway, just a random thought.
