Summary Take back your privacy starting today! Somewhere in D.C., a vast computer complex churns through quintillions of data bytes about every American, living or dead. And one of them is you! Satellites circle in space, prying into your intimate family secrets, while underground groups plot how to clone your DNA. Your phone may be tapped, your office burglarized, your identity stolen. They're bugging your clothing and hacking your e-mail. There's no place to hide. Or is there? In Someone's Watching You!, you'll learn about real, little-known secret programs run by both the public and private sectors
