German Court Abolishes German Snooping Law
Robert writes to mention that Germany's highest court has imposed limitations on the amount of spying governmental bodies can do on a suspect's computer. The ruling comes in response to a state law on North Rhine Westphalia that had allowed secret services to peer into a citizen's computer. "Court President Hans-Juergen Papier said that using such software contravened rights enshrined in Germany's constitution, adding that the decision would serve as a precedent across the country. The ruling emphasized that cyber spying by the authorities would have to receive the permission of a judge. The German government has described cyber spying as a vital tool in fighting terrorism."
Since my kids will be the ones paying for your pension
Pension? What's that? Do any companies even offer that anymore? I haven't seen any. Maybe you mean SSI? The ponzi scheme which will be bankrupt after my parents' generation retires? No... hmm, sorry, I don't see your kids paying for me.
I'll call that a fair trade
I don't. I earn my own living. Enough of your garbage where you somehow think that YOUR kids are so fucking important. They're not, they can die tomorrow, and I'd never know.
You can wish they would shut up or go away now and in a few decades, they can wish you would take up smoking and mountain climbing.
You assume I'll be interfering in their life somehow. I won't be. Keep your brats at home and stop ruining the country because you're too selfish to give anything up and expect everyone else to do your job.
