I think most people here with political interests and curiosity likes quizes and tests over internet too. And I have some good time after work at home spending some time over things I like.
And would like to ask you one thing:
Do you believe, do you think that games, quizes etc like this and forums over internet are watched by supercomputers and continiously databased as a way for secret services of goverments to be used for various means. As we are willingly providing our ideas and thoughts over the net which can be freely read by people. And it would be nothing against to human rights or privacy policies if goverments used hubs of freely information given places like this to gather data.

And some agents, and I mean no big people, but people like you and me working in just simple cubicles are paid to surf the internet and go to the hot spots to make analyses of peoples opinions etc. Like whats people talking about and what they care about. Like if we can make war on etc. if we just change the outcome of next weeks football matches and make a top top supermodel show her breasts and throw ina discussion about homosexuality etc, so we can draw their attention somewhere else as we quickly change tax laws etc before they notice. LAter we can just throw some other thing at them to play like a cat with rope.

And perhaps the possibilty of the maker of this game to be one for working goverment under free contract too:p Or possibilty of matchmaking sites, magazine or quiz sites to be watched by goverment. THey dont need camera in your bedroom if you willingy provbide information about it, get what I mean?

This idea is perhaps ages old but still I wonder, what do you think and do you care about it?

Yes, everything here is archived for data-mining by the world's intelligence agencies. It's the same throughout the internet. The only way to prevent it from happening is to communicate through heavily encrypted e-mail, but even then an analysis of traffic will reveal your entire social network and much of its members' social hierarchy.

Once you take away the porn, there's only about three sites left. Of course the government are watching the internet. The government like porn

They'd have to, getting off any other way is just asking for a scandal.
