The Authentic Eccentric

That was a lie.

I followed this post at SBB to this site where I encountered these words:

Today, the rights of individuals are being eroded: by government, by corporations, by society itself. This icon — the Individual-i — represents the rights of the individual.

It represents the right to privacy and anonymity in the information age. It represents the rights to an open government, due process, and equal protection under the law. It represents the right to live surveillance free, and not to be marked as “suspicious” for wanting these other rights.

It recognizes that a free society is a safe society, and that freedom is founded upon individual rights.

The battle for individual rights is just beginning; our side needs a symbol.

I agree, even if that makes me a lemming. Some things are worth following and spreading, that is the best part of having your own blog. It is the ultimate individual right.
