I think I've seen everything...


a friend recently sent me a website that allowed you to put in your address and it would show your neighborhood and where a felon lives in relationship to your home. If you hovered over the red dots it would give you the person's name, age and what their offense was. I looked at the info and then started to read the site. If you saw people over water, there was an assinine reason given for why you would see someone over water. If you saw push-pins, instead of bubbles, there was an assinine reason for it and the reasons almost always had to do with your faulty equipment, or a mistake you made.

This wasn't the frightening part. Among other things, they had a site that mapped people who, they say, have aids and another site that tracked people who have had abortions. These sites also allowed you to report anyone to them and in some cases, asked extensive questions...and gave bizarre reasons why your name would never be "wrongly" posted.

Be very careful of these sites. You can tell by what they say they are extremists.

If you're curious and check these sites out, I suggest you be sure your antivirus protection is up-to-date.
