Perhaps the reason we are not horrified by the surveillance society is because our parents normalised that behaviour by teaching us about Santa.
- Santa knows if you’ve been naughty or nice
- Santa knows where you’ve been & who you’ve been with
- Santa is able to come into your home without apparent consequences
- There’s even an elf on your shelf keeping an eye on you
- This is all good because toys
Santa – Ta, NSA.

A very happy Christmas to everyone who reads Wild Webmink. May you find software freedom waiting for you in the coming year! If you need a last-minute gift for someone, maybe a CD of LibreOffice is the answer – you can make and decorate it yourself, and use this free as a gift card. (thanks to Eliane from Brazil for the lovely tree!) Then go on to help them install it – more on ComputerWorld.
