...Because on June 21st, 2010, Apple will introduce iOS 4, and then it will.

In other words, this isn't just Apple :shrug:

If Big Brother wanted it, they could get it no matter what kind of phone you have.

Steve Jobs is watching you.
 
That is all.

If you read up on everything Google does to spy on people, you'll realize it's worse than anything Apple does :shrug:

People are funny. They carry tracking devices with them all the time, and don't even know it.

Did you know there's a black box under your seat that can report your car speed, and "testify against you" in court?

How man people carry toll "speed passes" in their cars? That's an RFID that tracks your every move.

And yes, of course, so does your cell phone. Turning it off doesn't even always kill it. You have to take the battery out (obviously, not an option with anything Apple).

Face it, the only thing missing is the numerical arm tattoo anymore. It's gotten way fucking scary. Now they wanna download your phone data during traffic stops?

HELLO? If only the SCOTUS would protect us, and actually respect the Constitution, there would be nothing to fear...but sadly, it's been stacked with so many conservatives, that we've lost nearly all of our personal Liberties...and kids, don't EVER think for a nanosecond that you'll EVER get them back, short of an all-out revolution; as that NEVER happens.

Once rights are lost, they are LOST FOR GOOD, and this country has already started an accelerated slide down a slippery slope.

I have heard this exact same rant from conservatives.

Guess the one word they'd change...

You're on crack, or pretending you haven't seen any of the court decisions, and who writes them.

Don't pretend.

Don't pretend.

The beauty of being a centrist is seeing the idiocy on both sides.

The absurdity is pretty much equal and the blame game is identical.
