RE: Lock yourself up

I have little doubt people could figure out who I am if they really wanted. I also have no false ideas that my data isn't already out there kicking around. I am guessing several databases with my info have already been breached. I don't think Al Gore gets the credit he deserves. He was the butt of a lot of jokes over here, but he seems like a pretty in tune fella to me.

Sort:  

Yeah, you and me both. In fact, a few people on Hive have tracked me down in real life and that's ok. I mean, I can take care of myself so if someone on Hive who meant me harm knocked on my door...well, I'd probably welcome the opportunity to deal with them you know? In truth though, that's unlikely to happen. That said, there's plenty of people out there who one wouldn't want knocking on the door...or sneaking into personal information. It's all a bit worrying but there's really little the average person can do about it.

I don't know much about Al Gore, some but not all the ins and outs. I liked the quote though, and felt it was relevant. Didn't he own the company that made the MRE's for the military during one of the Gulf Wars? I might be confusing him with one of the other chaps.

It's possible. I honestly don't know much about him either, I just know he seems to have had some good viewpoints, but he made some comments that stuck with him and he was never able to get past that I think.

I think many politicians have valid points and opinions. I also think many don't get them across well or they lose credibility elsewhere so everything they say seems like rubbish. Some probably deserve the bad name they get, some maybe not.

It definitely seems like there are more bad ones than good ones over here in the US.

Yeah, here too...our Prime Minister just wasted $400m on a referendum that was never going to succeed...oh well, it's only money right? Idiots, most of them.
