The problem is the bi-directional information sharing between private companies and the multiple levels of government -- it should be one-way (private companies -> government).
There is a very large potential for abuse and we will have no recourse.
- bcoates 14y agoI don't want information sharing that way either. We have (sadly, increasingly circumvented or weakened) laws banning that for a reason.
- ihsw 14y agoI will not deny that it's unpleasant but it is a necessity, which is why subpoenas and warrants exist. Unfortunately, law enforcement organizations are harrumphing and ruffling feathers so they're getting what they want -- ability to bypass the requirement for subpoenas and court-ordered warrants.
