Anon,

My new series, The Wary Guerrilla, is a study to determine to what extent humans are "hard wired" to seek out these sort of network-effects. [1]

In today's post, I tie the question together with terrorism [2] and the search for a "suicide bomber type" [3]

surveillance, like the common padlock, helps to keep 'honest' people 'honest'. neither will ultimately deter a committed criminal, but that is not the goal of such measures.

On the subject of SUB-common criminals, the video for Kos's open thread is high-larious! [1]
