             you should, it's hilariously retarded and a perfect
     description of views that must be avoided....unless your aim is to
     further empower govcorp.

   For transparency, I personally believe that open source surveillance
   technology would increase privacy.  I'm trying to understand our
   disagreement, in emailing with you.

             Do *I* need to know that? Shouldn't that be something very
     important for the people PROMOTING the idea?

   So you are furious and need understanding and carefulness around how
   dangerous surveillance is?

     I mean, the technocratic saviours are selling this as 'good'...while
     ignoring that increasing surveillance is bad. If they are really
     concerned about state power they would be careful to not play into
     the state's hands.
