How'd the government know what they were Googling?Commentsview comments in forum Page 1 You need to be a member of CKA and be logged into the site, to comment on news. |

HTTPS isn't a saviour either. Recall the story last week that intellegence services were looking for master crypto keys from websites so they can 'man in the middle' encrypted traffic?

I'm of the opinion that the answer we are looking for here is for intelligence services to stop spying to Mr. Camper and Mrs. Canner and everyone else in the hopes that one of the 350 million US citizens might be planning something naughty.
The expense and added levels of government that need to adminster all the bullshit arguable do little to make anyone safer, and do too much to make everyone less free.

I wonder where this news outlet's been for the last 2 years while the sneakiest President since Nixon worked his magic?
I guess that this chunk of Plutonium that I just bought on Craigslist might get someone's attention.
So is the shipment of bombs, grenade throwers, guns and other weaponry that I just sent in reply to the Nigerian email-scammer...

Don't count on it. If anything, it will get worse. Much worse.

Turns out, it wasn't the feds. It was an old employer, going through the web cache.
We found out through the Suffolk Police Department that the searches involved also things my husband looked up at his old job. We were not made aware of this at the time of questioning and were led to believe it was solely from searches from within our house.
I did not lie or make it up. I wrote the piece with the information that was given. What was withheld from us obviously could not be a part of a story I wrote based on what happened yesterday.

I have two backpacks and a wok. What can I make with them?

Depends on how you cook the backpacks.
Watch out.
