| Bush prefers telcos over citizens
Bush addressed the nation on this subject publicly today. He impressed that We, the people, would be exposed and at great risk if this bill is not approved. He also announced that he will veto ANY bill that does not grant this immunity to the telcos. Bush would choose to assist the telecom companies over the safety of We the people. What a colossal blunder. It really shows where his interests lie, doesn't it?

Rialto, CA | If the rules were broken in the past in order to protect the people, then they can be broken again for the same purpose. That means the President can veto the bill and still protect the people by breaking the existing rules. No problem. |

| This just wants me to encrypt all traffic going in and out of my house even more.
What's preventing the RIAA/MPAA of using this information to find file sharers? What happens if you get a LEGAL copy of a music track, then get nailed by the RIAA for "piracy"? What about downloaded legal software? Where does it stop?
The thing is, if events continue to follow the course, we'd be no better than China.
Just wait.. Soon they'll be filtering our internet data so we can only see what they want us to and we'll get into trouble if we bump into the wrong areas.
..and I love Bush's motto.. "If you don't agree with me, you're a terrorist".
