Your Tax Dollars at Work

Courtesty of dubhain, from Wired magazine, in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by the Electronic Freedom Foundation:

"Point, Click ... Eavesdrop: How the FBI Wiretap Net Operates"

It's not that I've anything to hide, it's that it's not your godsdamned business until I actually do something. More to the point, if los federales can do this, it's only a matter of time until enterprising individuals do this as well.

As a countermaneuver, may I suggest going a little cypherpunk?

It's almost enough to make me consider writing code... :P But I just don't think that way - I'm more a hardware geek.

I'm into systems, myself. Less spinning, more weaving...

Greetings --

mam_adar, who has been my LJ friend for several years, suggested I friend you after I posted about starting Paxson's Taking Up the Runes and then having an unexpected encounter with Odin. caveofstars is the journal I'm using to record experiences and reflections related to my priestess studies.

You may have seen my comments on M_A's journal as qos.

I posted about starting Paxson's Taking Up the Runes and then having an unexpected encounter with Odin.

Reeeeeally, now? As you might expect...that's not uncommon.

I'll drop off a comment in caveofstars too, and will friend you forthwith!
