[quote:Brunhilda:MV8xNzk4MzQ5XzI5OTAwNzgxX0ExNUJCRkY=] I bet Stalin would get a huge laugh out of this, we have become what we feared the most, just like Stalinist Communist Russia with a government encouraging people to turn on their neighbors. [/quote]

Want to be a snitch and hate America? There's an APP for that!
Getting bored of Words with Friends and you have a grudge against someone for some reason? You've probably downloaded the new Jailbirds Application for your Smartphone and are gathering data on your adversary that could classify them as a "Possible Domestic Terrorist" You then decide to snap a picture of him and send it via- smartphone to the Virginia Fusion Center apart of the Gestapo Homeland Security Hivemind.
Well just a click on the phone and a push of the green button and that person is now considered a possible suspect in suspicious activity. Did he pay for his coffee with cash? The audacity! Was he or she expressing their distaste for the current system of technocratic totalitarian control?
"In less time than it takes to play a turn in Words With Friends, smartphone users can report a “suspicious person” to the West Virginia Department of Homeland Security.
The domestic counterterrorism agency’s West Virginia branch, in association with the West Virginia governor’s office, unveiled a new mobile app called the Suspicious Activity Reporting Application this week. “With the assistance of our citizens, important information can quickly get into the hands of our law enforcement community allowing them to provide better protection,” Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin said in a statement.
The app is available in the Apple App Store and the Android Market."
