    Embrace the anonymity of the crowd. Don't stick your head up, and nobody will ever notice you, or think to pull your data.

What does this do to the freedom of speech? Since the time of the civil rights era, have we more or less protection over our freedoms of speech and press? Are the voices and bodies of desenters protected in any meaningful way, or must we assure our own protection as the Westboro Bapist Church does with cameras and law degrees? However truly protected we are, how protected does the American public feel compared to the civil rights era?
