Donating to a politician, was also something people were being targeted for - some have published donor lists and enlisted aid to track down the employers of everyone on the list to get them fired. And it's not usually customers who are even going after them. Actually, you know what, just click on the link to Greenwald's opinion piece - it's not the whole scope of things by any means, but yeah, I don't think you realize what is actually happening and he goes into some of it.
