You signed up today...to tell us this?
Welcome to FR today. I done told everyone that on the morning of 11/4/08.
It is time for those Linux programmers to come up with some real encryption algorythms!!
Welcome to the party, pal
“You signed up today...to tell us this?”
A little late to the party?
My understanding (which could be mistaken) was that the administration wanted to ensure there was a way to acquire communications from carriers via warrant, not to intercept without a warrant (i.e. communications companies should be able to respond to a warrant with something other than “we don’t have anything”).
There are certainly issues to consider — the intrusion on the rights of the carrier to do business as he wishes among them.
But, a warrant is pretty much a legal way of getting around any right-to-privacy ... so if the acquision of communcations is under warrant, privacy doesn’t apply.

A political death/dieing by a thousand cuts..
It’s been all over the news the past couple of days. There are other reasons for posting crap like this. :-) Me thinks the VKs will be on this one in a little while.

Hahahaha ... I think you are right.
Read A.E. Van Vogt’s “The Weapons shops of Ishtar”.
It’s about making sure free people always have access to technology superior to the governments. Remember - Obama only gets his way if the tech guys comply. As any good programmer knows, you always leave yourself a back door into any of your programs.
It looks too much like “bait”. This subject was pretty much worked over here yesterday and the day before... in fact, I “think” it started late last week. :-)
Which is the greatest threat?
In our home we vote on “The Outrage of the Day”...;)

Am I the only one who has noticed that there’s a crosshair on her neck? :-)
Welcome to the boards. ;)
We all understand how you feel, and
we know exactly what you’re talking about.
Please continue to be involved and don’t feel
embarrassed by the smart-asses.
I was a lurker since... 99? 2000?
I was always afraid to post because some Freepers
have very sharp ‘wit’, but I made the leap
and they don’t scare me anymore. Too much. :)
How long have you been a lurker? Glad you got your
brave on today. Be well, be blessed.
