There's a difference in knowing how the sausage is made. I'm certainly not naive enough to think that governments aren't always spying on each other's diplomats, however the appearance that the UK and US went to pretty c

I read it similarly, but not everyone may recall the ins and outs of the Patriot Act's passage—it was nearly a dozen years ago now. Many of the folks on HN were in grade school. I was trying to draw attention to the line that governmen

Perhaps even more important to note "before 9/11." So if mass surveillance didn't prevent 9/11, is the rationale to expand it to TOTAL surveillance, if necessary?

Giving up British intelligence for the G20 surveillance is also probably crossing the line. If developed countries can't trust each other not to spy on their diplomats where does that leave us? I guess they should all assume they are b

I'm getting one as well and curious. I'm in the midwest and my buddies and I are talking about flying out to SF and then road tripping back home and testing glass out along the way.

I had the same thing happen to me last week. And similarly received no response as to why it got nuked. We're a fickle bunch I guess.

And now that you pointed it out, the trend has reversed... what in the world is going on here? EDIT - I'd also like to point out that the headline changed. Is that a typical practice on HN? I don't think my original headline was anything in

That's the kind of thing I hope I'd do if I ever "struck it rich." But since I haven't yet, I think I'll go to the children's hospital next week and play video games and read with the kids. Makes me realize, I've already "made it."
