Please note there is some odd grammer in the second to last paragraph. It read:
'Stop using the Internet, but you'll use banks, drive cars have a social security number so you'd better get used to the fact you're already being watched.'
This could be more like:
'You could stop using the Internet, but you'll still use banks, drive cars, and have a social security number. You'd better get used to the fact that you're already being watched.'

So sorry, it was very rude of me. I'm a teacher and I just couldn't help it. Still, soon be holiday and I'll put the red pen away.
Forgiven?

Don't worry. I'm not hypocritical enough to get offended when somebody nitpicks my spelling and grammar. There's no need to firgive, as I was never upset to begin with.
