First they came for the hackers...

First they came for the hackers...

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 encryption users. But I could never
    figure out how to work PGP anyway, so I didn't speak up.
Then they came for me. And by that time there was no one left
    to speak up.
                             It can happen folks
