This is just outrageous. Really, there is no hope.

Add to that: this from today's NYTimes.... one really wonders WTF is going on...

Britons Protest Government Eavesdropping Plans

Excerpts:

"British lawmakers and rights activists joined a chorus of protest Monday against plans by the government to give the intelligence and security services the ability to monitor the phone calls, e-mails, text messages and Internet use of every person in the country."

"Under the proposal, reported in The Sunday Times of London, a law to be introduced this year would empower the authorities to order Internet companies to install hardware enabling the government’s monitoring agency, known by its initials, GCHQ, to examine individual communications without a warrant."
