Definition changing for people's privacy Definition changing for people's privacy 11/11/07 Quote: WASHINGTON - A top intelligence official says it is time people in the United States changed their definition of privacy. Privacy no longer can mean anonymity, says Donald Kerr, a deputy director of national intelligence. Instead, it should mean that government and businesses properly safeguards people's private communications and financial information. Kerr's comments come as Congress is taking a second look at the Foreign Surveillance Intelligence Act. Lawmakers hastily changed the 1978 law last summer to allow the government to eavesdrop inside the United States without court permission, so long as one end of the conversation was reasonably believed to be located outside the U.S. The original law required a court order for any surveillance conducted on U.S. soil, to protect Americans' privacy. The White House argued that the law was obstructing intelligence gathering. The most contentious issue in the new legislation is whether to shield telecommunications companies from civil lawsuits for allegedly giving the government access to people's private e-mails and phone calls without a court order between 2001 and 2007. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071111/...t_surveillance __________________ The Truckers Report Merchandise

If (name withheld to prevent being banned) gets elected, we won't have to worry about our phone calls being listened or even being stored on some data base somewhere. And we can all go back to talking dirty to our girl friends or wives. I guess they have to do that now cause our ports and borders are not secure. So they don't really know what foreigners are in the USA. A friend of mine went to the feed store to get some fertilizer, and had to sign a piece of paper for the Homeland security. He's almost 80 years old. MMMMWWWAAAAHHHHH..... He told them to go to hatez....
