Re: Suprised

To eliminate the thought of malicious intent look at this in terms of possible human error. No logging, no checking, which could be done. If the person on the other side of the ds-3 gets a virus of some kind there are no controls in place to stop the transmission.

Exactly. Wether it be a virus, an open email relay flood, bad routing, someone could inadvertently bring a network to its knees by doing this.

This type of carte blanche access disgusts me. I've had arguments about this with folks higher up the totem pole than me at the telecom I work for; it annoys me to no end that they insist on sticking with the "if you're not doing anything wrong, you have no need for privacy" BS.

Someone should be nailed to the wall for this.

Doesn't the threat of a lawsuit concern them?

No, I think they feel that letting the government rummage through anything they want is somehow more "patriotic" than honoring due process.

Why do you think Bush & Co is pushing so hard for immunity from lawsuits? So they won't have to be concerned about it... ever.

And everything in between, and probably forever. We're at war, remember.

Until the end of days.

You would be shocked if you knew how factually accurate your statement is, and how close we really are !
