Default POL $640.00 to fill the tanks...

Don't forget that this is from a guy that thinks his privacy may be in
danger from the radio tags in products being sold today.


Actually, I think it is in danger from the RFID readers that will almost
inevitably become commonplace, and the vast amount of computing power
that can easily be assembled to correlate "this shirt" with "that pair
of shoes" and "the car over there", and infer far more than I want them
to. Apply Moore's law and you get half-cent RFID tags and ten dollar
readers in just a few years.

I also think privacy is in danger from the likes of Sony and their
rootkits, unencrypted data tapes on UPS trucks, and the who-knows-what
that comes through the DSL line.
