Little Hackers

On my first blog I mentioned this book im reading called Little Brother. The name is misleading its actualy a joke about how disfunctional the government is. The main character in the book is a young computer savy kid who writes code, built his on computer from scraps, and named it Salmagundi. Salmagundi is Indian for anything made of spare parts. He gets boned by the DOD(Depertment of Defense) after a terrorist atack in San Francisco. Now I have said that you shouldnt be influenced by what you watch even though I am but you should be influenced by what you read. I know hypocritical but usualy ok. Now Im not talking about messing with the government dont get the wrong idea, I have a father who was in the Navy, a brother who was in the Marines, and another brother still in Afganastan for the army. I am saying that I have no personal issue aginst the government but the book does raise a point when it talks about how the things implamented to protect us just cause more fear and panic. But this blog is not me refering books to you 3 readers. Its about the dumb/smart things that make me think "Thats Dumb/Smart!"
