Ever since the Patriot Act gave the government the right to snoop through our library records to see what kinds of books we're checking out (who the hell tracks a terrorist by what they read? What ARE they going to read in America's public libraries that has to do with bombings or hijacking planes?) to see if we're a threat...that freaked my mother out when I got my library card and started going to the library for the first time, it was after 9/11, and there was all this coverage about they can find out everything you read. And she was nervous because at 13 I was big on murder, true crime, Jack the Ripper, Lizzie Borden...none of this says terrorist naturally, but why would that matter to Big Brother of course? I suppose it could still be seen as a potential threat or what the hell ever.
But I digress, if somebody were to look through your library records or see what books you'd ordered online or which ones were in your house...what conclusion do you think they might draw about you?
