UK Gov't Proposes Massive Internet Snooping, Data Storage
Barence writes "Big Brother Britain moved a step further today with the news that the Government will store 'a billion incidents of data exchange a day' as details of every text, email and browsing session in the UK are recorded. Under new proposals published yesterday, the information will be made available to police forces in order to crack down on serious crime, but will also be accessible by local councils, health authorities and even Ofsted and the Post Office. The Conservatives have criticised the idea, with the Shadow Home Secretary saying, 'yet again the Government has proved itself unable to resist the temptation to take a power quite properly designed to combat terrorism to snoop on the lives of ordinary people in everyday circumstances.'"

What's the value of information that you don't know?
That's OK, we hate ourselves, too. That's one of our characteristics. In fact, I'm hating myself even for thinking this, let alone typing it in and posting it.
Dear Americans.
We have gone through all the data, and we've found that your President Bush was a great guy with no faults.
Sincerely,

if your mail server ate everything and you'd like your backups from the gov't?
Likely so. Sometimes the old methods still work the best.
Word 64 on page 300 of the 3rd book on the 2nd shelf at the Cleveland Public Library. Word 6 on page 23 of the 9th book on the first shelf at the Los Angeles Public Library. Man, this is tedious. Maybe I'll just walk over and tell 'em!
