wow... I take back all my comments about you being worthless, good for nothing and only wanting to re-claim some of the glory you once had.

Nice write up...

There was a nice article I saw a couple weeks ago about how the U.S. gvt. said it is going to be illegal if a new bill is passed to use Skype and other communication mediums it can't track.

If you want a none security book that falls right in line with this. A good read is Digital Fortress by Dan Brown

I am still shocked over the scandal that is surrounding the willingful passing of telephone logs to the gvt.

"Those the give up a little freedom for security deserve neither" -Benjamin Franklin

edit:

A really good movie that also falls into line with this is V for Vendetta. When governments no long fear their citizens and their citizens fear them. There is a big problem.

Crow the reason there is an increased amount of cyber crime IMO is the same reason that when prohibition was in place the U.S. as a whole increased with crime. Tell someone not to do something and they do the exact opposite. Far too many constraints are being placed upon users

For those interested in the article I am talking about...

From my reading... THe companies willingly gave up the info without being requested. That is why the gvt. is fighting itself about it.
