Nothing new. I had an employee who could crack just about any Hotmail account
is a half hour. If you poke the government they poke back these days. At one
time government and law enforcement were stupid about such stuff. No longer
is this true. We were losing laptops like crazy at work so I put a radio in one laptop
and left it out sure enough a week later someone stole it. I built a directional
antenna and with the police we traced the laptop down in town got a search
warrant and recovered the laptop. This is the stuff I can talk about. Yes there
are very clever people who can still keep folks in knots but they are the exception
not the rule. I don't expect anything I write to be private anymore. Hackers and
crackers live a scared life for most part especially if they are doing like wikileaks
and such protest work. The government has no sense of humor.

And someone can pick your pocket at the Tianguis, or break into your home that has top notch security. If they want what you have, they will take it.

Spend your life looking over your shoulder, or looking ahead.

Your choice.
