  • who I call or who calls me
  • what I search for on teh interwebs
  • the contents of my emails

I'm not a terrorist, after all.
Someone forgot to read the Patriot Acts...

People aren't good or eviil either.

Unlike people, corporations don't lie awake at night, worrying about what they did.

Yeah. That's what a few journalists might have thought before their homes were raided and PCs confiscated because their innocent research triggered the wrong words.

Ironically, Google can help you find the cases.

Considering how they solwly erode your human rights away with we need to store this on you and that on you. They are evil. Micros~1 is less so. Atleast Micros~1 makes it plainly obvious they want to rule the world. Google is trying to hide behind the world to rule it.

Just my opinion. /me dons flame ******ant suit
