Homeland Security's Spying Keywords List Is Released And Ridiculous

Put a minor victory in the "win" column today, as the Department of Homeland Spying Security has been forced to release its internal list of words, that when used on social media sites and online media, flag citizens to be spied upon. Utilizing the Freedom of Information Act, the Electronic Privacy Information Center (a watchdog group) has revealed this disturbing and ridiculous list of terms that will officially earn you your very own government spook.In theory this list is used to keep tabs on potential terrorist threats, public health issues and crime. The full list of hundreds can be found here, but I wanted to highlight some of the more ridiculous words that will brand you as worthy of being spied upon.Drill, Exercise (What would Michelle Obama think?), Cops, Prevention, Response, Recovery, Police, Gangs, Screening (don't go seeing any movies!), Cloud (no fun cloud shape discussions!) Burn, Flu, Wave (wave hello to a friend AND your new government spy!), Sick, Pork (the other, OTHER white meat is domestic privacy intrusion!), Airport, Metro, Power, Smart (stay stupid and stay safe, America!), Electric, Cancelled (your favorite sitcom can be cancelled, but a new episode of "Homeland Security's Funniest Home Videos" starts NOW!), Southwest (the government has never forgiven the Confederacy for the Civil War), San Diego, Border, Mexico, Pirates (Avast ye' spying scallywags!) Ice (yes, ICE.), Help, Snow, Watch (what time is it? Time for a lack of internet privacy!), China, and Social Media.Good to know that words that come up thousands of times a year in conversations will now red flag you as a potential terrorist threat worthy of constant monitoring by the government.
