 1 edit | ...... NSA already doing it. Latest guy to speak out said government collecting all data, and using keywords. Instead of discarding irrelevant material, it was being archived. So why should this spook anyone. Big brother around the corner. We don't know what the government uses our information for. Obviously, it feels the need to make large databases about the lives of Americans (scary), They admittedly are spying on innocent people, soldiers, aid groups, etc. So we just have one more player. Might as well face it, our data is public information now and our lives are an open book. Don't say or do anything online or on the phone you don't want potentially haunting you in the future. Encrypt where you can, and realize, privacy is dead. So why sue here? We can't sue the government (Thanks Congress.. Morons). So what's this one solve? Throwing pebbles at a giant, and hoping to topple the problem, just don't work. |

Eventually, someone's pebble will hit the right spot. All around (and easy to implement) encryption might be the pebbles. -- Fight NebuAD and the like: Click Here to pollute their data |

 | reply to knightmb Well without sounding pessimistic. Whats a million pebbles do when you are going to stop one entity, when the biggest problem still can get away with it? It's like putting a bandaid on a severed limb. It might stop a LITTLE BLEEDING, but you still going to hemorrhage to death. |

Ever hear of "The Green Hornet" also known as "SIGSALY" these ISPs & data thieves are not doing the NSA etc any favors at all!
The Germans didn't discover what the protocol was let alone decode it!
These DPI systems will just cause a lot of grief with Privacy & Severe Data Protection Problems before maybe in only one year two years at the most the protocols are enhanced to lock out the snooping! |
