We like privacy, right?

How about internet surveillance?  And think of all the controversy when AOL sold their search listings to the government.

According to CNet, the FBI has decided that if it can’t find the IP address of a potential suspect, they are just going to monitor the whole pipeline!

Meaning everything I do online is suspect.  Everything my neighbor is doing online is also being recorded.  Hell, the criminal can be living at the end of the block, but all our internet connections are running through one switch, or junction point.

In a telephone conversation afterward, Ohm said that full-pipe recording has become federal agents’ default method for Internet surveillance. “You collect wherever you can on the (network) segment,” he said. “If it happens to be the segment that has a lot of IP addresses, you don’t throw away the other IP addresses. You do that after the fact.”

How does that make you feel about your constitutional rights??
