Re: Just wrong.

What you do on the internet should be extremely private! Just like your phone calls,
It's probably a matter of expectations. If I had a party line (telephone) I wouldn't expect "extreme privacy." The internet seems a lot like a party line when I can sniff packets and gain information from people who *freely choose not to use encryption*.

This seems tantamount to using a party line (because it was cheaper) and then complaining that my neighbors are telling my business to others.
