>>5632156>This is a public service announcement: ladies and gentlemen, we are now entering the age of information. It's perfectly safe, if we all take a few basic precautions. May I make some observations?
>Axiom 1, for the world we've begun:your reputation used to depend on what you concealed, now it depends on what you reveal. The age of secretive Mandarins who creep on heels of tact is dead: we are all roleplayers now in the great game of fact instead. So since you can't keep your cards to your chest, I'd suggest you think a few moves ahead, as one does when playing a game of chess.
>Axiom 2, to make the world new:paranoia's simply a word for seeing things as they are; act as you wish to be seen to act, or leave for some other star (that means "kys" you fucking faggots). Somebody is prying through your files, probably. Somebody's hand is in your tin of Netscape magic cookies, but relax: if you're an interesting person, morally good in your acts, then you have nothing to fear from facts.
