I'm a well known activist on the topic of gov't abuse. This is a classic case of the most extreme hypocrisy. By both limiting these technologies in the corporate/consumer world on one hand, and failing to competently utilize the technology they've reserved for themselves on the other hand, the U.S. government is acting out the symptoms of the most aggressively bureaucratic tyranny imaginable. Think kafka's 'the trial' and you are getting close! I don't know much about the tech-head end of this, but I do know when my government has stepped over the line. whose with me? let's start a 'young persons' lobby and light a match under those chubby bums in the senate!
