Gossip Cop: Science Fiction

The gossip cop came around at a quarter past noon, and she could only be thankful that her husband was sitting at home eating dinner like a normal person instead of out in the smoke shops talking to the other men who felt the need. "I've received a disturbing report," the gossip cop said, "that you've been sharing data that came not from your personal experience nor from the authorized channels, but from a backdoor drop that we've closed down." "You can't know that," Rob muttered, his eyes on his soup. "Well, actually, we can know that, sir. You see, we've embedded key meme phrases into the gossip up on the illegal site, and when we detect such meme phrases it is easy to backtrace the progression and discover the originating source. Would you care to tell me what you heard?"

Inspiration: "gossip"
Story potential: Low.
Notes: Boring. And too reminiscent of a zillion other thought-police stories.
