  1. Re:Bah on How South Park Beat an NC-17 · · Score: 1

    I do not believe that tv/cinema influence children really, Oh, of course not. Television has no infuence on people's actions whatsoever. And the billions of dollars spent on advertising during the superbowl/world series/othermega$porting event are entirely wasted.

  2. Re:Easy Crypto on DOJ wants Court to re-think Pro-Crypto Ruling · · Score: 1

    The gov't has no more the right to read a written letter in a sealed envelope as does my next door neighbor.

    Actually, yes, they do. Letters from husbands to mistresses have been drudged up througout the history of Civil Court Proceedings. During Workd War II, my grandmother's job was to open international letters, block out ALL references to ANY time and place whatsoever. And let's not forget what a find the Microsoft Email was.

    I'm not in love with the idea of divulging any sort of information to the government, but if a person ever IS accoused of a crime, then the government - and the accouser / victim - has a limited right to the outgoing and incoming communications of the accoused. That includes wire taps, wired cops, and decryption.

    The key words are limit and moderation. Judgement and Common sense would be nice, but who are we kidding?
