Stumble It!
I have no desire to be incarcerated without charge and with no recourse based on some sifting of my personal history through digital algorithms designed and run by people who see anyone that disaggrees with them as "The Enemy".
Any country that would conduct itself in the current manner of America cannot be trusted to draw reasonable conclusions on any subject and their ability to reach into my life must be curbed! Just think of Gitmo, Iraq, or a legacy of interference stretching back decades and you will get my point.
