I also bought a Filco Majestouch 2 with Brown switches. It just too high in the front so the wrists hurt and kind of heavy pushing down the keys so I go tired writing on it. A bit of disappointment.

The difference would have been that then everyone had rallied against the evil Republican. Now instead you are called a racist for even implying that Obama is an authoritarian statist. Look what happened to the rodeo clown.

Did I say it was the only tracking method they use? Of course the US government also uses non-blocking techniques like wire tapping, snooping, hacking etc. However, today Google has all the information about users that the US government can
