Well, we dont. And if they are, that's data connections. Maybe the dentist is connected to some one scary, a client. Now "you" are connected to some one scary.

- mpyne 13y agoEven in the braindead idiocy of government, which I can confirm from firsthand experience, that would not constitute a "terror network".
- jacques_chester 13y agoThe problem is that connections like these occur purely by chance. When you multiply the events together you get a low probability ... but there are hundreds of millions of Americans. There will be a lot of false positives. And how will they be treated? It seems: poorly.
- girvo 13y agoI'm personally more frightened about someone like the IRS being handed data from the NSA, than the NSA thinking I'm a terrorist, and I pay my taxes and everything. I'm just frightened about being nailed for any tiny mistakes that I have made in the past, that this data capture could glean, if that makes sense? FWIW, I'm not even from or in the US of A, but I'm worried about my government doing something exactly like that considering how much it's cooperated with the NSA directly in the past and present.
- tommis 13y agoah, but it's plausible cperciva is connected to a suspected terrorist and might be using the magazine stand in the dentists waiting room for dead drops..
