If it is true that the USA is listening-in to our "conversations" - TopicsExpress

If it is true that the USA is listening-in to our "conversations" (as the US Supreme Court once ruled the function of the internet to be), then I am very annoyed. I am reminded that when I was training people to find errors in their program code there were managers who pounced on the process as being useful to them to measure the performance of their people. Such hi-jacking would, of course, have destroyed the value of the process. The USA seems to be sliding down the same slippery slope. The internet, in all its forms, is overwhelmingly a source for good - spying on us will kill it.
