     If you thought the government was overstepping its bounds to fly drones over the country, you are not going to like the latest news from the IRS. According to an article from a fox affiliate in Washington, DC, every time the IRS has a red flag on someone they will begin browsing through your twitter feed and Facebook account.

     So, what exactly will they be looking at? Will they be looking to see how many restaurants you checked into over the last year? Will they be looking at the pictures you posted from your family’s vacation?  Whatever they are looking for I believe this is an overreach by a government that is moving closer to a police state than ever before.  One could argue that posting on Facebook and Twitter is public information.
