That will show em! Look at all the convenience your giving up, just so you can be red flagged.

  Since when is Facebook a convenience? Regarding a cell phone, I don't commute and I don't have even the tiniest bit of need for one. Linux is better than Windows, and it's my opinion everyone ought to use a VPN. Finally, you have to be a real conspiracy nut case to believe not having an Facebook account or cell phone would get someone `red flagged` by a shadow overlording spying agency.

    As a counterexample of your “nut case” hypothesis, in anti money laundering, now, across the globe, a bank not having enough profiling information about you is deemed a red flag, and assigns you more risk - that may rise to the point that they close your accounts or that your assets may be frozen proactively by the bank without a judge, or the police for that matter, to opine in the freeze. Not many banks use facebook as a datapoint but mobile phone and address? Par for the course. And this is going to increase with fraud and aml converging.
