You are all arguing about a relatively simple thing and not one word about what may well happen to all of us tomorrow at the FCC meeting.

Maybe the honest members of the commission will manage to dissuade the others from thinking like Mark Lloyd, but I doubt it since he was so important as their "diversity"director.

Maybe not. They could be programmed to spy by an implanted chip and have no memory of doing so.

It could be YOU.

What? That didn't count?

No, we had all the wing-nuts assuring everyone that it did't matter because they had nothing to hide.

Only a fool would think that the Govmt have not been monitoring such sites, and e-mails for years already. And a terrorist would be a fool to NOT use the net to communicate.

If the CIA actually expects to get meaningful information from monitoring internet babbling, that agency is in more trouble than anyone imagined. How easy it would be to misdirect them!

By the only dentist I could trust - a blond haired, blue eyed, buxom one.

No records were kept.

It's called data mining and they don't "read posts". There is software that can quickly go through and parse and categorize and summarize.

Search for the TIA project to read about gov't work.

Thank the Patriot Act for allowing the government access to your data.
