Government Spying/Control Part 2

I have added to the right a clickable "badge".

From the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) page.

ABOUT EFF

"From the Internet to the iPod, technologies are transforming our society and empowering us as speakers, citizens, creators, and consumers. When our freedoms in the networked world come under attack, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is the first line of defense. EFF broke new ground when it was founded in 1990 — well before the Internet was on most people's radar — and continues to confront cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights today. From the beginning, EFF has championed the public interest in every critical battle affecting digital rights."

Government Spying/Control

Since 9/11 our government, in its infinite wisdom, has felt the need to spy (secretly) on our populace. I'm all for LEGAL means of obtaining information but. when it comes to getting this through WARRANTLESS means, I have issues.

This is where the EFF can be of help, and not only in the the Bloggers' Rights arena.
NOTE: The title is a link to the first post. That in turn links to a Newsweek article. The "badge" links to EFF and the Bloggers' Rights page.

-More to come
