First they came for the hackers. But I never did anything
illegal with my computer, so I didn't speak up.
Then they came for the pornographers. But I thought there was
too much smut on the Internet anyway, so I didn't speak up.
Then they came for the anonymous remailers. But a lot of nasty
stuff gets sent from anon.penet.fi, so I didn't speak up.
Then they came for the cryptographers. But I could never
figure out how to work PGP anyway, so I didn't speak up.
Then they came for the gamblers. But I thought people who
gambled were stupid, so I didn't speak up.
Then they came for me. And by that time
there was no one left to speak up.
