This is not anywhere near anonymous. All transactions go through "InvisiBuy", and you're trusting "InvisiBuy" to not keep records or even willingly give information to the Government. BitCoin may have it's flaws, but it's better than this.

It mentioned that you could disable recording for a period of time. What if you set the LEDs to disable recording for several days or even weeks.

While I think that it is important for consumers to realize that there are privacy features, and how to use them, I really don't think that this is an area in need of governmental regulation. The major social networking sites have privacy o

The idea that we are even considering an internet censorship bill in the United States is appalling; and for IP protection of all issues. Also, how long will it be after it is enforced that the affected sites start moving to underground net

Not really. You could always write a browser app for iOS or Android that uses Firefox or Chrome's user agent to have servers return the full desktop version.

Wire a toggle switch to cut the connection between the baseband and the antenna, and it shouldn't be able to transmit more than a few inches.
