This story on "Patriotic" companies forget that once upon a time it could be said that: real Americans question authority".
It seems "trusted partners" have been outing a lot of information without due process or even a good reason. It's a scary article, describing even more than Snowden released.

And here's an example of why I object far less to the panopticon when its use is open and available to everyone: "A traffic warden from Telford who lied about being run over by a driver after he gave him a ticket for parking in a disabled space was today jailed for four months..." when the CCTV footage showed otherwise.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
