Keeping An Eye On Total Information Awareness

mesozoic writes "Wired is running a story about hackers publishing John Poindexter's personal information (like satellite photos of his home) to protest the proposed Total Information Awareness system. This is just too funny, and it may even raise a few more eyebrows among the national media."

    CANADIANS TO LEAD WEAPONS INSPECTION TEAM INTO USANovember 21, 2002
    (Toronto) - A coalition of Canadian peace groups today
    announced their intention to send an international team of
    volunteer weapons inspectors into the United States later
    this winter. The coalition, Rooting Out Evil, are recruiting
    inspectors through their newly launched website,
    Routing Out Evil
    .
    "Our action has been inspired by none other than George W.
    Bush," said Christy Ferguson, a spokesperson for the group.
    "The Bush administration has repeatedly declared that the
    most dangerous rogue nations are those that:
    1) have massive stockpiles of chemical, biological, andnuclear weapons;
    2) ignore due process at the United Nations;
    3) refuse to sign and honour international treaties; and
    4) have come to power through illegitimate means.
    "On the basis of President Bush's guidelines, it is clear
    that the current U.S. administration poses a great threat to
    global security," said Ferguson. "We're following Bush's
    lead and demanding that the U.S. grant our inspectors
    immediate and unfettered access to any site in the country -
    including all presidential compounds - so that we can
    identify the weapons of mass destruction in this rogue
    state," added David Langille.
    Visitors to Rooting Out Evil's website are invited to sign
    on as honorary members of the weapons inspection team.
    Honorary inspectors can participate in the action, or they
    can simply lend the support of their name as they would on a
    petition. The actual inspection team that crosses the
    border will be comprised of prominent individuals from
    Canada and other countries.
    The Rooting Out Evil coalition includes Greenpeace Canada,
    the Centre for Social Justice, and the Toronto Committee
    Against War and Sanctions on Iraq, and is supported by
    American groups such as the National Network to End the War
    Against Iraq, Global Exchange and the US section of the
    Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. They
    oppose the development, storage, and use of weapons of mass
    destruction by any state.--For information: David Langille or Christy Ferguson

    When Noam Chomsky signs an M.I.T. paycheck does he use a ballpoint pen, or the bloody, severed limb of a Cambodian peasant?
