"White House proposal would ease FBI access to records of Internet activity"


So?
I wonder how many times a day the average Joe is video'ed either in a store, using ATMs, on a busy street, etc. No such thing as privacy in this day and age.

Does anyone really live in fear of having their telephone calls monitored to overseas destinations? What did ever happen to all the hue and cry over the Partiot Act trampling on civil liberties???

If you want complete privacy, I suppose you could live like Ted Kaczynski.

If you are that concerned about privacy, best you keep your eyes open until you find a trashed mobile phone with a sim still in it. Just recharge it & put it in another mobile. Big brother will think you are some 14yo who originally owned the sim.

I don't think Ted is enjoying very much privacy anymore, either.
