Look there .. is it propaganda, fear, truth, or something else?

I don’t know.

But this was just too weird and a bit freaky to pass up.

So, I was in Melbourne city a month back .. and I saw an Anti Chinese Communist party rally.

The banner reads : Stop Harvesting Organs from Living Falun Gong Practitioners

Their hand out had also had the following photo:

There is a Max Headroom episode called “Body Banks” where targets are identified for organ transplant compatibility and forcibly “harvested”. That 20 minutes in the future seems to be here.

Obviously these people believe this is happening. It sounds like science fiction (or even holocaust-esque) that groups without favour of the government are being farmed. Where are these organs going? Experiments or party members?

My new job is security consultant for web applications. I “ethically hack” websites.

But my observation over the month or so .. is security consulting is corporate speed dating.

Each week or so, it’s a new client or project.

It’s a little bit like “Men in Black”, you turn up in a suit, do the job, and fade away.

And that’s really how it is, when you’re onsite, it’s new building, new surrounds, new cubicles, new peope, new places for lunch, new systems and then the bell rings at the end .. and it’s next partner.

Weird, I tell you.

But I like it. If you’re a change junkie (which I am beginning to think I am) then this is THE source of change.

While watching the news this morning I heard the following from an Australian Politician, about to be sworn in:

“We’ll be tackling the big issues like broadband … “

It’s Weird to hear this said, weirder that it’s now an “issue” in Australia, and we are competing with the rest of the world with better service capabilities and price. This isn’t the dark and gritty cyberpunk that was imagined 20 years ago …
