Ok. I was browsing wirednews.com today and saw the first headline "anti-attack feds pushing carnivore"... For those of you who don't know, Carnivore is the new government system for monitoring content distributed through on-line means, most notably e-mail. The roll of the device is to seek out those discussing/distributing "dangerous" information. I think you can all see where this is going. We all need to keep our heads on straight and realize that the danger of terrorism exists no matter how many civil rights we let go, and indeed the danger of our own government becomes greater. The internet is an amazing force for getting out from under opressive governments, the minute we lose it's freedom, we also lose hope to realize it's potential for leveling the playing field of masses to government. The time to make a stand is now, petitions, protests, anything. We can't let this tragedy result in our own enslavement. That's all, cdin reply to: k-rad@swbell.net Sorry if im double posting this, it didn't appear last time i sent it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
