[Still Thinking]

Rule 1: Yes, national security is important, and I WOULD be willing to give up email and the web if it were the only way to foil a truly foreign invader.

Rule 2: In order for Rule 1 to kick in, I would have to KNOW, not simply be assured by the government, that it was in fact necessary and not simply a power play by a government bent on dominating their erstwhile masters and taking away any means they might have to defend themselves against that domination.

I can't imagine the circumstances under which rule 2 could EVER be satisfied.

I can't imagine the circumstances under which rule 2 could EVER be satisfied.

Foreign nukes falling from the sky would satisfy me for rule #2, but I can't imagine it mattering after that.
