If you don't like it, contact the ACLU, I'm sure they'll be moving =
quickly for a constitutionality challenge.

Subject: FBI is at it again
Per the following article: =
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,37203,00.html it appears as if the =
FBI now wants to route ALL Internet traffic through it's central =
servers!!!!
What gall!! What nerve!!!!
Now, for all of you who said, "Hey, I'm not doing anything wrong, let =
the FBI monitor what it wants to." can go shove hot spikes up your nose.
I don't think the FBI really wants to control the Internet, they want =
to destabilize it. As tyranny approaches the only thing more dangerous =
than an armed populace is an informed one. If they can monitor all the =
traffic, they can certainly control it.
The ISP's (whatever those are) need to collectively tell the FBI to go =
jump off a bridge. Information campaigns need to be sent to the =
customers to alert them of the potential loss of civil liberties.
I'm gonna stop before I say something that will get me arrested.
Regards,
Larry Diffey
