What was once the blog that got me fired. Now try and figure it out. I intend to Track the eventual overthrow of mankind by robots. Conspiracy theories. Election Fraud concerns. Documenting the Silent Totalitarianism of the Surveillance Society. Or maybe this is just my real life, only fictionalized.

Boing Boing: Companies that have fired people for blogging
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment on my blog...it's amazing to me just how many employers feel threatened by bloggers and like with anything "new" people feel a need to control it!
I wonder how many employers fire bloggers for reasons other than blogging... perhaps blogging was the straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak. Only the blogger himself/herself really knows.

I hate to to agree in one sense, we should not live in fear of this kind of tryanny, but I respect your fear because it comes from reality.

I am sure that it's quite a few, I am also sure that my employer would tell you that. But it was strange that I was not fired till they read it!!
