Well thanks for giving me something to write about :D Glad you liked it and glad you got something out of it.
A curse and blessing from my background is the 'knowledge of good and evil' I guess. Paranoia for me comes from knowing what lies within the realm of the possible... and its a scary realm sometimes.
Frickin hella scary, my man. You're article gave me chills months back and I could see how it was possible that some people and organizations were already doing exactly what you were describing. Run with the Steem article on this a bit, because I'm always down for a good horror story! XD
