    Big Brother is watching you...…………….

    I don't mind him watching me.

    I do mind him interfering in my life by installing unwanted and intrusive software on my device.

    I do mind him deleting Kate Hopkins twitter account because it offends Nick Clegg and his purple haired friends, mincing and flouncing and tree hugging.

    Isn’t this illegal uploading tracking software without permission?

    Personally I’m not really bothered if it means it might help protect me from getting infected, or help stop the spread to others.
    There’s already enough CCTV and surveillance infrastructure in this country for the authorities to see what were all up to most of the time anyway.
    This app is just a more granular and accurate extension of that surveillance.
    If you’re really that bothered, leave your phone at home when you’re out doing something dodgy. :p

    My rant of the day today?

    LED security lights.

    Like many of you I guess, I have several of these devices dotted around the outside of my house and on the garage, front and rear. The one at the front of the garage gave up the ghost last night. They seem to go dim and the little pixel thingys don't fully illuminate, which is usually the sign they need replacing.

    Of course in the 'old' days with the old type, you would just replace the halogen filament. I've still got a load of 500w bulbs in a drawer somewhere. But these things don't seem serviceable and so its throw away and buy a new one. But the buggers aren't cheap are they? I've had several 'GO POP' in the last couple of years, but this one on the garage is only just over a year old. I've taken it to bits in case water had got inside (it chucked it down here last night) but it seems fine from that perspective. Has anyone got one of these thats actually lasted for several years, which is what they are supposed to do? If so where did you get it from and how much was it? ;)

    Just asking ... whats the big deal with it being there? Most people have location enabled on their phones anyway. While your phone is on it pings off towers, so you are always being tracked. Every tome you buy something on Amazon( other online shops are available) suddenly your facebook has ads related to that product, so your social media and purchasing habits are being watched. There are cameras everywhere. :no_mouth: Big brother is already watching.

    The Racism and Fascism cards are the worst tools that were ever handed to the left wing. You cannot argue for reason or the middle ground as, unless you hand all over without a word, you are a racist and a fascist. If it wasn't for the fact that Armageddon and the end of the world as we know it is only a few years away the history books of a time to come would condemn Hitler not for WWII but for the weapons he put in the hands of left wing extremist who live in an airy fairy ideal world where everyone is equal which is totally unworkable in the real world. It's funny isn't it that the rape of Germany by Russian troops at the end of WWII, the vile treatment of the Poles, the Pogroms and a myriad other barbarities committed under communism, and the lack of free speech and forced labour camps are never mentioned by any of the left leaning people.

    I am not generally of a religious bent but I do believe in God and, it seems to me, that the current situation has the marks of 'The Great Deceiver' all over it. He ain't called that for nothing and how better to get people to do your bidding than to make them believe they are marching in the light?

    Personally I am trying to organise a lift off this spinning garbage ball with the next cruise ship heading for the Arcturus system before the big man upstairs hits the 'flush' button again.

    Oh aye I have been told the babes are very sexy in that system. Not met them myself but, I am told they are tall (they are known as the 'tall whites' and are said to be so white they are almost blue and extremely beautiful with blond hair and blue (almost violet) eyes. They are not to be messed with though and anyone who threatens them will have their brains scrambled or be killed on the spot.

    Hmmm, not sure I’d like the single colour option, you’d be missing out on some real hotties!

    Ah well I love the colour purple (not the movie!) and blue so I'm sorted! True I prefer a redhead but when in Arcturus you do as the Arcturians do, or die.

    You’d probably like Fuchsia and Baby Blue, the Succubi from the Sinfest artworks (I know I do)
