A maker of surveillance equipment, MetaSignal, is excited about how the 9/11 attacks will boost their sales to safety-conscious amusement parks:
?Before September 11th, I think people would be very offended to think that they could be tracked in a theme park. People are more giving now in terms of their civil liberties.?
-Feng Chi Wang, MetaSignal president (via MSNBC)
Let that sink in for a minute.
That scares me to no end. The problem is, if those of us out here that are concerned about this sort of thing don’t do something, it will continue to happen. I wonder how far “people” would allow it go before they say “enough”?
