That could lead to a sense of responsibility to do the right thing. What's this First Amendment thing that I have absolutely no protection from? Oh, right, something American! Geez, don't you Americans realize the constitution is something of a moral code that you should uphold in law and practice, with force (hint: guns, militia's) if need be? Anyway, again, unless you're one of the fortuitous/doomed 322 million people that have a US citizenship this grants NO PROTECTION AT ALL EVER. Not even when in the US or whilst using a US service. FISA and "National Security Letters" prove the threadbare legal holdfasts snapped ages ago anyway. I would swear there was something compelling the people to revolt when the government acts against the people/the public's interests, but I cannot find it now. Filter bubble or a lively imagination, who knows what to blame. works... IF EVERYONE cooperates to flaunt, flaut, and disregard it. Could you IMAGINE the gubmint trying to take every internet provider and major website operating in the US to court? Shut down Twitter and Yahoo!'s US ops? Really! Have you heard of "punitive punishment"? Do you know the percentage of people breaking the Computer Fraud Act? What about Copyright? How many people have been selectively convicted of drug use? (bonus points for racial profiling!) Simply put: oh no, you are so, so very wrong. But then, one simply doesn't do business in Australia that needs warrant canaries. What am I missing? Uhh.. What?...
