I'm going to be blunt, that is fucking creepy. And I'm of the male gender, don't have a Facebook, use ghostery/adbock/encrypted linux. Combine this with phone location (GPS/GLONOSS/aGPS) and you know where they are at all times too. Sudde

I know many people on here are kinda libertarian...but have you looked at the government? It would still be possible to make >60k/year and work 40 hrs a week, although it might end up being boring work.
