    Did I not just read a few days ago...that Congress wanted more control over being able to view the contents of our computers? What's up with them and this control thing? It sounds like they want no privacy...plus...http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2... there seems to be mistrust when it comes to the pair, China and the US...and it's the US's fault...know why I know...it would have never happened if the US had good motives as their ambitions.
    When I say this...I am not accusing us, the citizens...I have good intentions, even if I can not speak good about government in Washington.

The Chinese foreign ministry could not be reached for comment.(ref:http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/...
