Fuck the TSA
So the European Union has caved to the paranoid U.S.A. by permitting the access and use of rather private information on travelers. Information such as Union activity, mobility (wheelchairs etc.), even sexual orientation is no longer taboo for TSA monkeys in the “Great War on Terror.”
Check out this article from The Guardian, or this one from the Washington Post.
I, for one, am not happy about this new development. Sweet Eris only knows what personal information of mine is locked away in some database. Probably multiple databases, and not all of them governmental. Sometimes I wonder if it would be a good thing to be a Blank (as in Blank Reg from Max Headroom).
But then I probably wouldn’t be able to do anything.
