Security Threat In the New Wiretapping Law
The NSA wants automatic surveillance capabilities in telephone switches. But once such capabilities are built in, others could use them to intercept communications. Within 10 years this could render the US vulnerable to attacks from terrorist groups across the globe, as well as from the military establishments of other nations. "Such threats are not theoretical: In April 2004, phones belonging to members of the Greek government, including the prime minister, were spied on with wiretapping software that was misused."
...if you have nothing to hide, what are you afraid of?
err, learn to read and you might see that's far from the only concern being voiced. there is no muddying of the waters, the danger is clear.
If you mod me down, I will become more powerful than you can imagine....
Your wife? You, sir, have fallen for the biggest scam of all time. Trust me, I know. Suh-weet Jesus and Mohammad do I know.
Dude, just because your ex-wife wouldn't give you a blowjob, don't go tarring everybody else's marriages!
Linux, you magnificent bastard, I read the fucking manual!
Whoa dude, maybe some THC should be in your future...
/. reader at a time.
Seriously, I don't know what wacky psych courses you took, but if you got all that out of what I said maybe you should condsider chilling the fuck out. I didnt mean to piss on your soapbox with sarcasm (have you heard of it?)
You don't have to find it funny, but you don't have to read me the riot act either.
People that smoke pot (you know, with THC in it) tend to have a reputation towards paranoia. In this case paranoia is likely an accurate perception of the world, but nonetheless, the stereotype and the reality intersect somewhere. It's not like it was a significant post in the topic anyways, but far be it from me to interrupt your crusade to save the world one
Jesus, dude, seriously, chill the fuck out.
