    I'm sorry but in the US, data retention laws applied to the ISPs themselves, would be redundant. When a broadband shunt to NSA is already installed in AT&T's main data switching center, and the government is prepared to defend its legality, the only means left to the citizens is to use the technology available to secure their own communications.

    Got something sensitive you want to send in email? Encrypt it. Got something sensitive you need to do over the Internet, use an anonymization service (while you still can).

    Sorry the above should have gone on the "Data Retention" post, but it's sometimes difficult to tell where one post ends and the next begins.

    Might I suggest some kind of post seperator in your blog-template?

    Good suggestion, Kvatch. Sometimes I include a number of related articles in a single post. I am sorry for the confusion. It's ok to comment on one article at the end of multiple articles, though.

    We are always happy to have the frog visit us. Attach your sucker feet to our blog any time.
