that happen? I don't know, but the potential is there. Will i be safe
without a facebook? Probably not... Hitler2.0 will go after the 16 guys
who have no facebook first since they gotta be suspicious.
How is she/he going to correlate whether you're not on facebook?
By going through all the ones who are on facebook and comparing it
to the overall population?
Hint: It'll be way more than 16 people, I can think of at least
5 people *I know* who are not on facebook ...
Didn't Hitler 1.0 use the Polish census data initially?
(Census data would be a lot more accurate than what someone
feels like lying about on facebook.)
