Wouldn't it be simpler to ban children from the internet?

You know it's time for an election when politicians start talking about morals. When will they ever learn?

What does the word "unreasonable" really mean in a climate of fear?
35.
by Mordor 13y ago
"two or three" is the same as "at least three", in other words "everyone".

The real value of a stock option is zero, with an expected value higher than that. Perhaps this is more about balancing realistic expectations and real income against the pursuit of a dream?

"Mr. Obama said in an accompanying signing statement that he will not abuse these privileges" Sure, he'll just ask someone else to do it...

Finding the culprits and extraditing them to Bolivia would be a strong guarantee ;-)

Wasn't it Yule Nonflie and Erik Searchenplanen?

This proves nothing, since PRISM likely isn't the only program run by the NSA.

Perhaps, but isn't it better for companies like Google and Amazon to have competitors than a tax free advantage? Trickle down economics isn't a solution.

A cloud is what exactly - something fluffy in the sky, an omen of rain perhaps? It's supposed to make you feel safe, but is this really what they are when you're surrendering your most personal information to some greedy corporati

I've stopped using Facebook and behold - all my best friends are still here. If a friendship can't exist without Facebook, then they probably aren't your friend at all...

perhaps 'cloud' is a misnomer - any ideas what the real name should be?

It's worrying that words are being redefined to the extent that Obama doesn't make any sense anymore.

Little brother or big brother? If this data is captured by the NSA, then Google Glass is an erosion of civil liberty.

Perhaps they should all be fired.

> I assume most people are acting in good faith He's talking about himself of course, the NSA is premised upon the exact opposite.

Oh, they won't bother when it's clear they need China more than the US.

WSJ must be quaking in their boots lol

Surely a compressed call recording is also 'metadata'?

> I don’t think anybody says we’re no longer free because we have checkpoints at airports. Lies right there. It's difficult to call someone a liar because the scope is far reaching, beyond just one untruth or another. Would it be co

PRISM isn't the NSA's only project. They could can it tomorrow and then name this something else. Only with full unrestricted inspections by the UN can this kind of abuse be brought under control.

Is that you Snowden?

by Mordor 13y ago
Well, they could give data 'personhood' such that it's an individual in the eyes of the law and covered by the US constitution. No more changes required, except that the NSA would grind to a halt on all of these programs.

Obama is at liberty to divulge all anytime - the only free man in the US. Perhaps he should resign?

by Mordor 13y ago
Actually, there are a lot of secret programs and there's going to be a PRISM II, which, coincidentally keeps an exact copy of the data from PRISM after it has been switched off. The only way to get around this is to open up the NSA to
