This is one of the main reasons why I don't have a cell phone or cable. I do have internet, but I checked with my little local ISP, and there is no "binding arbitration" clause. I think I would have to suck it up if that changes, because access to the internet is essential for me.

It's one reason I've never upgraded to a smartphone.

(The other being that I haaaate those stupid fake keyboards they have.)

Of course, the towers still know where I am, but... At least it's less precise, they have to work for it a bit, and I usually leave my phone at home.

I'm hoping to fly beneath the radar such that I'll be down with it when the opportunity arises. And it appears that it might be necessary some time. (So, I probably just blew it by typing this. Hey, you guys, I'm going to misbehave!)

Strange, because most of the ads I get on FB are totally irrelevant. For instance, for the last few months I've been getting ads for multi-million dollar real estate in Manhattan, Westchester, and Connecticut. Of course, I'm also the only person I know over the half-century mark who has never received a single piece of mail from the AARP.

I really can't imagine it coming to that but if it does, its payback time and the bastards that have held us back and held us down while they live the easy life are going to have build solid cash forts and hide inside.
