 Thank you for the reminder. I'm definitely on some lists. The good news is that having worked for the government, corporations and seeing what is being unaccomplished now I feel confident that they are so locked into the Fiat treadmill that they will screw up anyway. 

Moving forward I'm better at security but not perfect.

Also, I don't hide who I am and I'm basically regarded as a fuck-up. This is fine with me. 

I'm so tired of the fear factory that I'd rather be put on a shit-list and have the government attack me than try to hide everything I do or don't do. I've been incarcerated for dumb shit and I didn't have the financial means to escape so I accepted the circumstances and moved on. 

Just the other night I was telling a friend who was an IRS contractor that the IRS is a criminal gang and deserved disrespect. 

Live free or die. 

Practice better opsec but don't let it derail your joy. 

I'm not a good example. I was radicalized by George Washington.
