Quote from Ricter:
On the premise "guns don't kill people, people kill people", to prevent catastrophe of the terroristic kind we need to get "inside people's heads" to find the bad characters before they act out. So we need to "snoop". The reduction of mass killings is good, the loss of privacy is bad, but so long as you're not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about.

When it comes to this issue, that's not true. I don't like the snooping at all, but I do see it as a natural consequence of the character-based mode of murder and terror control.Quote from Fractals 'R Us:
...and if the spying was happening on Bush's watch you would have a function key to release a screaming, ranting message about Bush being like Hitler...
