Right now, some kid is posting something politically incorrect. 20 years from now, he'll be running for congress from the "wrong" party.
The geek crossword puzzleteers from No Such Agency, with a few clicks, will be able to pull up every text, tweet, E-mail and blog post he's ever made and give it to the "right" party, deep-sixing him at the optimal moment.

Do you think the journalists in this country just abjectly abandoned their profession for ideology OR do you think raw FBI data files on the heads of these news organizations has been used against them to never, never criticize obama in the news media? If they would blackmail the CIA director, what is to blackmail the head of ABC, CNN, CBS, NBC, Time, New York Times, Washington Post, etc.
