The things I read on blogs and twitter. Sheer madness!
Wow, some of the concepts written in there are over the top even by my standards.
Then I think:
If twitter and blogs had existed in the GDR, they would have been treasure troughs for the “Stasi”.
Now, we also have homeland security and a Federal Intelligence Agency. They are always on the alert. And many other secret services look for potential terrorists like for the needle in the haystack.
Maybe they all search the internet and look for suspicious ideas and articles.
In that case, the agency would have to be doubled in size each year in order to manage. The growth is quite apparent.
That would mean new and well-paid jobs.
So – let us all do a lot more twittering and blogging!
