Sensored To Death

Sound and motion sensors in our homes,
Sensors wherever we roam,
Tracking devices and sensors on our cars,
Sensors staring at us while we watch Hollywood Stars,
Our words and privacy have become exploited and 
sensored to death,
conveniently sensors are never around when people are struggling
for a breath,
Confidentiality as we know it, has died and gone away,
Our lives have become fodder for the sinful.......

It is sad about some of the confidentiality that we have now..Nurses and drs. are afraid to say anything for fear of a lawsuit..But sometimes it goes to the extreme..Then again on somethings that they should keep quiet or watch what they say and they talk..Sometimes those videos that are watching everywhere helps solve a murder or thief..But then if you think about it, I wonder if cameras are catching me shopping, etc...Great topic that you have chosen..I am glad that I read this one..Sara
