I admit, I pay cash for some of my more outre movie and book purchases. But then, I always did. I also watch how I use my MetroCard, my building pass cards, library card, internet accounts, etc. Always did. If the Patriot Act has made people more aware of (or paranoid about) how easy it is to track all kinds of private stuff, well, I can't say I think that's a bad thing. 'Cause, whether the regs say they can track it or not, the information is there, so they can.
