Have you ever noticed that teeny, little camera way up on the wall behind you, Aitch?

You mean the one pointing the other way, Jeff??

No, the other one.

I work at a Public Library. We are actually encouraged to surf the net. Knowing how and where to find information is what we're all about.

Sure, but if all you do is spend your time at one site, how are you learning "how and where to find information"?

Don't worry, Jeff, we cover the world's most deep and relevant issues right here every day.

What else does one need to know in life that can't be learned here ?

Very true, mdear!

I work for this boutique financier (not financing boutiques...)- as you can imagine in the current environment, business is slow, so "surf's up"...

The boss is a real hard-head, so I have to watch out for him....

Oh sorry, I was just over at Wikipedia.

Eh, using a camera to know what someone is doing at their work desk is old technology.

But this a is Borg nanotechnology camera. That's why Aitch didn't know it was there!

These days they could plant a camera on the end of your nose and you'd never even know it.

Any company with an appreciable number of computers on the internet probably has background software logging every click you make. We do. How's that for creating paranoia?!

Ohhhhhhh...... you mean the smoke detector that looks like a teeny little camera??

That's why in my previous working place I had an ecnrypted tunnel going to my server, and from there - to the internet, all they could see is my tunnel, not where I go to or what I do
