Basically what this means is if the cops don't like you, you're not playing. So I guess all future performances in Philly if this bill passes will be dadrock cover bands and Jimmy Buffet.
It's just one bull, how is it going to enforce the legislation all across the city?

Idk, something about getting more power over people (especially different, artistic types who can shape opinions) really gets an arousal out of government officials.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Kind of archaic though, isn't it? Plus a lion or something would do a much better job.

That's true. Leftöver Crack wouldn't have a chance playing in Philly with a lion in charge. Sure, they'll lead you on that they can stand up to any kind of abuse but a healthy mauling would certainly do them in.

PBS and WikiLeaks reports:

Private corporations have made an 8 billion dollar industry selling NSA-level surveillance tech to hostile dictators and wanted political criminals around the world, permitting them unhindered access to the electronic communications of their opponents, governments, and the citizens of any nation.

And it's 100% legal.

That reminds me of the "last capitalist we will hang will be the one who sold us the rope" quote. Whoever came up with it or said it first.

Baby monitors 'hacked': Parents warned to be vigilant after voices heard coming from speakers | News | Lifestyle | The Independent

I suppose given the fact some of them connect to the internet and/or have a cam (something I was not aware of) this shouldn't be too much of a shock, but it remains creepy as ****.

You could make a good horror film with that premise.
Either with some run-of-the-mill sick **** or with a supernatural twist to it.
