i'm shocked at the number of people who don't yet know that even their public library usage is being monitored.

i went to a former soviet republic last year and noted elderly women speaking to each other and their faces were only 3 inches apart. i figured they had developed the habit so no one could hear what they were saying. a local resident added "...and no one can read their lips". it made the hair stand up on my arms. are we coming to this???
none of our distance communications are secure...you can be targeted on hear-say, you can be targeted for no reason at all.
anyone who thinks this supposed "national security" authority won't be abused doesn't remember nixon's "enemies list" or j edgar hoover.-

Most people have this misguided faith that their own government just wouldn't DO that kind of thing. These are the ones who need to wake up. Now McCain is considering Tom Ridge as VP and this is the guy who implemented all this spying on citizens! And we wonder why people from Russia, Poland, Czeck Republic etc are suspicious of police and authority!
