Back in 1998, the film "Enemy of the State", with Will Smith and Gene Hackman, seemed so futuristic as to be impossible to happen here in the US. Now, we *do* know the US government has extensive abilities to track us all over the grid. Likewise, we common citizens can now replicate the defenses Hackman's character used to foil the feds -- as it should be. One can now set up multiple defenses to prepare for unwelcome visitors. We also know enough (some of us anyway) to not reveal so much information about our lives, at least not in any electronic medium.
