Judge to Google: Turn over Youtube records
A federal judge in New York has ordered Google to turn over to Viacom a database linking users of YouTube, the Web’s largest video site by far, with every clip they have watched there.
The order raised concerns among users and privacy advocates that the online video viewing habits of tens of millions of people could be exposed. But Google and Viacom said they were hoping to come up with a way to protect the anonymity of YouTube viewers.

...at least by sector. think about it. It's true. ...if you continue voting the current two-party "corporatocrisy," you better know your candidates OWE a lot of nasty corporate prix with a lot of special interest they PAY for. the figures listed are probably just the ones they feel won't get easily questioned.
worth taking a look at which sectors as well, back in 2000, just could not afford to let Gore rightfully be the popular-vote President... I think you're President goes to the highest bidder.

"Terrorism?" WHAT "terrorism"???
The government IS very likely politicizing terror to a despicable advantage. Keith Olbermann is the man! In Countdown he questions what's prudence and what is literal fear-mongering. The clip "Nexus of Politics and Terror" examines the top 10 “coincidences” and juxtapositions of supposed terrorist events and warnings intersecting with times of political turmoil. "You be the judge." i.e "Educate yourself dammit!" =P Wake up, your government lies BIG so you'll believe it.
If you look with OPEN eyes, you'll find many of these "warnings" are just intended to influence and manipulate the public... You'll find most if not all of these "threats" are/have not been supported or even necessitated by evidence but instead are merely REQUESTED by the US government...whether the people in charge of raising the color "Alert Levels" agree with them or not...many times they flatly disagree and apparently are forced to do it anyway...
forced to do it anyway... forced to do it anyway... flatly disagree but forced to do it anyway... better get used to that if you keep apathetically laying down and giving away your rights (AND MINE!) for largely empty fear of "terrorism"
don't believe the BS people... Wake up. Tell the gov't to phuk off and quit spying on us!!!! They're a more dangerous fear to manage than any actual terrorists!!!

Senate approves wiretap bill
The Democrat-controlled Senate handed the White House a major victory Tuesday by voting to broaden the government’s spy powers after giving legal protection to phone companies that cooperated in President Bush’s warrantless eavesdropping program.
So for those of you keeping track, in the last year the Dems have approved the war in Iraq, expanded wiretapping, military commissions, the "homegrown terrorist" bill, and a special amendment that requires all of us to personally S Bush's D.

Losing our privacy? Losing our rights.
My personal belief is that by allowing government eavesdropping, we are allowing for the government to take away our human rights. I personally can't find any way that I could support the situation, and I don't think it's necessary to do so at this point in time. I can't find a time where I would think it was necessary either. I don't have anything to hide, but I don't think just because I don't have anything to hide, that the government should have free reign to do what they want in this instance. My personal belief is that by allowing government eavesdropping, we are allowing for the government to take away our human rights. I p... more
