You're confusing me with some average Joe, of course. Typical and predictable mistake, happens all the time. If I broke out a RealID card with Joe Average on it, what would you say then?
I've been a member of the EFF, the AFL-CIO, and several other notable organizations that fight for personal privacy for decades, doesn't matter. There's only so far people's beliefs are going to carry them in this day and age, and preaching about such things doesn't alter the fact that there is no such thing as anonymity online, there never has been, there never will be. If you're connected, you can be found, period.
Anyone that thinks otherwise... well... they'll figure it out soon enough. The RealID card was, of course, a joke, but I have to explain things because most don't get it.
As for the "kids" remark, I'm old enough to be able to say it, although the Wife did cut off a lot of my gray hair earlier today. It's a free country, I'll say what I want. The only folks that seem to get irritated by it are those with big chips on their shoulders anyway, what do I care.
