Hey Big Brother, I know you're watching ~ Tweet Me!
If you REALLY want to be creeped out, consider that everything you “Tweet” or Facebook is monitored 24/7 by the real, present day, genuine article BIG BROTHER: specialized software aggressively, continually scouring your postings and triggering on keywords which automatically put into motion notifications of organizations, companies, corporations, government, etc., connecting them to your tweet and information. Check out http://www.radian6.com/ for an example. It’s the new “science” of social network monetizing called ‘LISTENING.” The nice explanation is that they’re just listening in for purposes of “measuring and engaging” customers… and one of the biggest of these companies is owned in part by the CIA. Seriously.As a person wiser than me has said, “Never write or say anything anywhere that you would not be comfortable seeing plastered up on a neon billboard, with your name on it, every day as you drive back and forth to work, or next door to your church, synagogue or mother’s house.” The internet, social media, cyber space, etc. IS THE WORLD’S BILLBOARD and anyone can see it any time, and you can never take it down once it’s there…
