I will stipulate, for this argument, that Mr Snowden provided inconvertible evidence that the NSA read my email. And you read a file from my Dropbox. So what? The latter is likely to be a crime, the former is not. You or I walking around with a gun is an offence; the 3rd Rajputana Rifles marching with mortars down Rajpath is not. There is a reason it is called "The State". Right or wrong, a State may take actions that it forbids its citizens to do. Krishnakant, the loss to the people whose privacy was invaded exists, irrespective of what other people have lost. When you stub your toe, me talking about how others have lost their legs does not help your pain, nor (imn my opinion) is it an appropriate response. -- Sanjeev Gupta +65 98551208 http://www.linkedin.com/in/ghane
