I have to bitch about something. In today's paper. There is an article about the Justice department and the F.B.I. pushing for Internet wiretaps. They said Technology companies should be required to ensure that law enforcement agencies can install wiretaps on Internet traffic and new generations of digital communications. They are using the," it helps our fight against terrorists" excuse. The critics they interviewed said. It would cost the Companies that make these devices to much money. The Justice Department replied. That the cost should be passed on to the customers. Do you notice anything about this that sticks out. Like individual rights to privacy, or civil rights abuse, or the government and big business being in bed together, or the fact that neither care about the people.... Big Brother tightens his grip.
