THEY
ARE WATCHING YOU.
You
all know about the government's COBRA program which
reads every piece of email written, parses it for
key words and sends those it deems suspicious to
CIA, FBI and Secret Service agents for follow-up
action. You also know that every single telephone
call you make is under the same type of observation.
Your innocent email or casual remark during a telephone
conversation could put YOU on the suspect list and
cause more trouble for you than there are brain cells
in Russell Crow's head.
Sorry, that was a bad example. It could cause more
trouble for you than there are lice on a Taliban
latrine cleaner.
We all believe that the last bastion of privacy
is the bathroom, but even there we are not safe (see
my toilet cam article)
. And now there is an even worse invasion of our
rights. The eye-cam.
Although this science started in China, the technology
has spread rapidly and now agents of every known
and some unknown governments are being implanted
with eye-cams. 
The eye-cam is a device no larger than a hummingbird's
nostril. It is surgically implanted behind the cornea
of an agent. The device is not felt by the wearer,
and is controlled remotely by satellite from anywhere
in the world. Pictures from the eye-cam are broadcast
back to whichever field office is controlling the
agent In some cases data is broadcast to certain
alien colonies elsewhere in the universe.
At the moment there is no protection from the eye-cam.
You are advised to blindfold anyone with whom you
have contact before permitting them to enter your
home. Make them wear the blindfold at all times until
they are safely out of your house. If the person
claims to be a repairman, even the repairman you
called, be extra suspicious.
Be particularly careful of people who don't appear
to be looking at you, or people who you catch looking
away when your glance darts to them. These are likely
to be eye-cam wearers, rather than people who overtly
stare at you.
Remember that a hard punch to the eye behind which
the eye-cam is implanted may disable it, but be sure
you are punching the correct eye. 
Keep your doors locked and whatever you do stay
close to the silver foil. Blindfold all visitors
so you will never be "ready for your closeup,
Mr. DeMille."
