Sarc is correct.

My point is, once the precedent of intrusion into an individual’s life is well established, it is extremely hard to deny further intrusions.

Today this seems outlandish.

A year or two from now, it’ll be SOP.

There was a case in MA, where a company fired someone for smoking (cigs) at home, citing the contravening of it’s zero tolerance tobacco policy.

They won.

Yeah, that’s what I thought you were thinking.

Heck, give them enough time and they will have us all chipped with it sending back live time data on what we’ve done with our bodies that day.

(sigh)

It’s scary.
