I strongly recommend that everyone be highly critical of FISA. The US government at large is a more complicated subject, but criticism there is also a great idea.
I think it's obvious in my comment that I admire resistance against FISA and NSLs. I believe that Google has conducted such resistence (though I may have been deceived), and insofar as that is true, I admire Google for doing so (and I admire Calyx for doing so). This should be plainly obvious from my comment.
Given that, the fact that you claim I'm trying to trick people into not critiquing FISA and the US govt, I can only conclude that you didn't actually read my comment. With allies like you, who needs a malicious government.
Regarding name-calling, perhaps that's a fair point. But I think not. I asked if Mr Schwabe actually read the article he keeps citing (since it's inconsistent with his claim about it), and I think that's legitimate. And I called his reasoning laughable, but his reasoning IS laughable; he thinks the best case is the null case, which is crazy, because there are lots of better possibilities imaginable, like the possibility that Google is championing user rights and winning (maybe that's wishful thinking, but it IS a possibility).
