Too funny - Even more on the Citizen Spy Corps
From the Politech mailing list, Brad Templeton suggests:
We just need operation TIPS-TIPS. A network of people to spot and identify possible TIPSters, to put up lists of their names, routes and addresses, and possibly to put chalk marks on their vehicles, homes and even clothes so we can spot them coming, avoid socializing with them, refuse them entry onto our land. Perhaps like "No Solicitors" or gates could have signs saying "No TIPS informants". If the power company wants to read my meter, they should send a non-informant.
This whole thing would be funnier if the whole thing weren't so scary. I got some email from an Arab-American acquaintance who is imagining what it will be like for him and for people like him when meter readers and moving people use something like TIPS every time they get aggravated with someone with a "foreign" name.
*sigh*.
