Beatlemania was really hard on The Beatles. George Harrison was particularly reclusive after the band broke up. This brings me to the topic of privacy. Most people don't seem to realize what a wonderful thing it is to be free from the scrutiny of strangers and simply left alone, until they lose the priviledge. So much personal information is available on the internet! Another blogger, oxyJENic, posted links on her site that enable you to look at the appraised values of your neighbors homes, just by typing in their addresses. More than reading information from the Center for Technology and Democracy, this drove home to me just how intrusive and invasive the internet can be. Now, what are we going to do about the Patriot Act??
