Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Know Your Enemies: Who Voted NO on HR 2397
Sorry to disappoint you empty, but you, MJ and I nor anyone else on FFL is important enough for them to care anything about. So not to worry. You would need to be a reporter for a major news outlet before they start looking at you. Your code words for today are: pickle overture armadillo You can find your decoder ring in your box of Sugar Frosted Flakes. Be sure not to swallow it by accident.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Know Your Enemies: Who Voted NO on HR 2397
Much has been made of the abuses of Google but being a little familiar with their management style or lack of it I would bet some engineer added some code, for instance for the cars doing Google Streets, thinking that having wifi info available might come in handy sometime. And of course in their Aspergers mind not realizing the privacy consequences. Similarly a lot of permissions on Android are used very innocuously but the press can make a big deal out of them sometimes. I recall that if anyone IT person had dared read the private emails on the house network they might have been shown the door. We took email to be just as private as snail mail. These days we have a lot of cowboy coders lacking any ethics who think "why not?"

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Know Your Enemies: Who Voted NO on HR 2397
The apparatus may have been in place for twenty years but the abuse of it is rather recent. Do we really want to live in a society that reflects East Germany with it's Stasi? I don't. Also I raised the point elsewhere that this means that those "secret projects" we all sign NDAs for with Silicon Valley companies are no longer so "secret". That gave some pause to SV CEOs. The vote was split and could have been a tie if the 12 not voting had voted yes. It does send a strong message that Congress is NOT at all on board with this abuse of power. Boehner and Pelosi are corporate whores as is our Senator Feinstein.
