John Connor hides in fear of....THE GRID

In Terminator 3, that of several Oscar awards, John Connor spoke of falling off "the grid", thus making himself unavailable to be tracked. There is talk of a different grid on the horizon, but one that could lead to John's dismal future nonetheless.

The uber-smart geeks over at Cern have already laid some of the foundation of "The Grid", and promise that is very nearly here, capable of being widespread in just a few years. In fact, they plan to start their massive project of finding mass-generating matter later this year, in their attempt for global domination. Not really for global domination, but it just sounded better. While the goal is for academic institutions and government agencies to get unrealized computing power and speed for research projects, I only care that they think I can download an uncompressed copy of T4 by then, and can let go of Divx rips.

Lastly, in honor of Ahnold, I've embedded a soundboard below. I take no responsibility for who you prank call at 3am. Not that I ever have.
