You're aren't safe in your home either. Things like Your Wifi signal, your =
new Giant Screen TV that is hooked to your cable company providing data str=
eaming for Digital TV, Internet, APPS on your TV, GPS on your phone, your v=
ehicle, etc.
Remember when your utility companies installed those fancy new meters (some=
times, as with indoor mounted readers in the basement, they ran a wire to a=
 transmitter to the outside of the house) with the capability of the meter =
reader to point a scanning device out the window of their vehicle to read y=
our meter to "save time"?  Go read up on how Businesses like Walmart and ot=
hers, conspired with utility companies to have them "Upgrade" their scanner=
s to allow their company to place a type of RFID from companies like Sensor=
matic into all (or most) of their products from Cereal, to Kleenex, to cond=
oms, or any other product you buy, so that when this info was collected fro=
m the utility company, and passed on to Walmart (or whoever) they could the=
n "SPY" on what types of products you use, how often, what brands, etc. all=
 under the guise of being able to predict how and when to restock these pro=
ducts onto their shelves. Anything and EVERYTHING that is designed to trans=
mit or receive data and/or be used on the Internet, is capable of "Spying" =
on you.
