Here's the sort of thing to be paranoid about:

Hawaii's legislature is weighing an unprecedented proposal to curb the privacy of Aloha State residents: requiring Internet providers to keep track of every Web site their customers visit.

Its House of Representatives has scheduled a hearing this morning on a new bill (PDF) requiring the creation of virtual dossiers on state residents. The measure, H.B. 2288, says "Internet destination history information" and "subscriber's information" such as name and address must be saved for two years.
But actually, no need to be paranoid about it after all... it'll be struck down as unconstitutional, if it ever does pass. Moronic state legislators are always making news with their moronic ideas of what good law is.
