Pretty weird that the people who text us non-stop asking for money write all the telecom laws about whether it's legal to text us non-stop asking for money.
We need some sort of federalized governance system to tell shadowy credit bureaus they're not allowed to keep secret dossiers about us without our permission.

Ah, memories of Pappy's Run I haven't savored since that one South Park episode...
He looks like if Johnny Bravo had a Scrappy Doo.
Espionage, the Black X!!
