Poll: Did Operation Spy On Everyone™ really end at midnight?

[JDPriestly]

12. The reality of the possibility that we might be spied upon because of our political views

is of course cause for a lot of paranoid thoughts on very bad days. Like when I open my Yahoo account and instead of showing the temperature in Los Angeles where I live, it shows it in I think Herndon, VA. (VA I think). Also, I recently signed up for Facebook and received notices that my account had been accessed from Herndon, VA.

Just now, I checked Yahoo and I got the Los Angeles temperature.

My paranoid thoughts may be silly. I'm not seriously worried because the worst I do in my life is express my harmless opinions on DU and coo over my grandchildren and those of others in my family. But, hey, it's a crazy world, and I am a nonconformist, so who knows?

But the change in the Yahoo temperature report may indicate that the surveillance is on hiatus.

Or it may indicate that I and probably many like me are overly paranoid. Who knows? Anyway, I try to behave myself and not say anything too offensive. And I suppose that is the purpose of the surveillance. To make us behave ourselves and to chill any naughty speech we might indulge in (as if I would).
