I said no one's challenged the validity of the PowerPoint . What you're quoting is challenging the articles written by the Guardian and the Post.

Is that the entire bill? Seems extremely narrow-scoped and with no terms defined. IIRC, the ongoing spying is not even warrantless - they're operating under a broad-scope warrant issued by FISC, so this bill would do absolutely nothing

I'm struggling to make sense of all this. On the one hand, the denials from the companies in question are becoming more and more genuine and convincing - on the other, the NSA PowerPoint did leak which very clearly states the companies

Realistically though, can you imagine there being so many CEOs knowing that this thing is going on and being forced to lie about it, and not one of them spilling the beans? Even if the gov tries to arrest them for leaking classified informa

This really is the way to stop this. Support representatives like Mark Udall and Ron Wyden and vote everyone who's supporting PATRIOT and warrantless wiretapping out of office. Civil liberties should be as big of an issue (if not bigger) du

I have no problem with the fact that Facebook has to gather and distribute some sort of information on you to get advertiser money, it's just a matter of the way they do it. There's obviously the whole Facebook uploading all your contacts w

Teen here. I'm firmly in the "hate it but can't stop using it" camp. I've tried G+, and for a brief period a few of my friends tried it as well, but we switched back when it failed to reach critical mass. That's all Facebook has going for i

Good. But why does Facebook get off scot-free? I feel like their contact-uploading behavior was even more egregious than Path's. EDIT: I missed when originally reading the post that the fine was for violating COPPA, while the other provisio
