Espionage |
|
|
|
I'm
a stalker. This
isn't news. Anyone I've ever dated would tell you
that, at some point in time, I've put my foot in it:
admitting I know the name of their siblings, how their
dad lost the family business, or how they have a serious
online poker problem.
|
|
"How
do you know that?!?" each man sputtered in amazement.
Well, WIN (Women's Intelligence Network), the world's
largest "social network," is pretty effective in disseminating
information. Google, too, is key for any business information.
But Facebook? Facebook is the bunny boiler's best friend.
Think your profile is 'private'? Think again.
Oh, the secrets I could keep. But don't.
|
|
So
it's hardly surprising that MI6
have begun recruiting on Facebook. Anyone
with any interest in 'espionage' is addicted to
the site. What is surprising is that
the spooks haven't contacted me directly.
But then, of course, they've done their research
- they know I can't stand a pushy suitor.
Well played, my friends at MI6. Well played.
