So I am now at an undisclosed location within a state that has a great college football team. Moving into the groovy new pad, Bro has a Dell *Windows 10* computer - he's not to hip to the whole whiz-bang "Wonderful World of The World-Wide Web" modern scene, know what I mean butterbean? Fundamentally speaking, I've been getting a lot of these as pop ups - do people really fall for these scams? You jivin' me man? Is the image supposed to be encouraging you to call, then they will slam the phone down on you? But I digress: another "Danger Will Robinson!!" WARNING popped up, this one even somewhat more dire: Contact 800 number blah, blah, blah. for assistance Call now to get ...yada, yada, yada... Act now and save $49.95.,blah, Toll free number for you to get scammed with. We now join our regularly scheduled programming in progress. Poster Comment: Dckard : OUT! PC performance alert!! Our diagnosis shows that your computer still has "errors" - along with a cutesy little animated gif of a red late 1950s dial phone, the handset appears to be slamming itself down on the desk receiver?!?

I got one on my phone the other day that said I had 37 issues that needed to be fixed with my phone. It was a popup that came from a supposedly Christian site, their moderation tactics in the political forums tell you that it isn't though.
Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!
Could be a hacker or malware site or a hijack site that calls itself a Christian site to sound more trustworthy?
Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. Those are as bad as all of the robo calls I get all day long, every day.

The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.
