Next Media Animation deliver again with this weird animation summarizing our new Police State
There will be No Secrets soon.

As each means of secrecy is crushed soon there will be nowhere to be free. Why do I feel more and more like a tin-foil hat wearing lunatic?
I don’t even use these services but I feel that it is important that they be allowed to exist.
First it was Lavabit:
My Fellow Users,
I have been forced to make a difficult decision: to become complicit in crimes against the American people or walk away from nearly ten years of hard work by shutting down Lavabit. After significant soul searching, I have decided to suspend operations. I wish that I could legally share with you the events that led to my decision. I cannot. I feel you deserve to know what’s going on–the first amendment is supposed to guarantee me the freedom to speak out in situations like this. Unfortunately, Congress has passed laws that say otherwise. As things currently stand, I cannot share my experiences over the last six weeks, even though I have twice made the appropriate requests.
What’s going to happen now? We’ve already started preparing the paperwork needed to continue to fight for the Constitution in the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. A favorable decision would allow me resurrect Lavabit as an American company.
This experience has taught me one very important lesson: without congressional action or a strong judicial precedent, I would _strongly_ recommend against anyone trusting their private data to a company with physical ties to the United States.
Sincerely,

Then there was this about the Tor servers:
I need bunnies and ponies and alcohol.

Secrets are so 20th century now that we have the ability to collect and store billions of pieces of data forever
And this is all okay with everyone?

Just so that you, like me, can feel a little bit paranoid on a Friday morning:
It seems that we are handing over our very selves without even realizing how much of our selves we are giving away.
This should be troubling.
Oh, hang on, just have to send a text…
