Hmm - you have any idea how much data flows through AN ENTIRE COUNTRY
per day?
Quite a bit.
So they can scan this data - what are they going to DO with it? Not a
lot, is my guess...

You apply filters and look only at those bits which might interest you.
Actually, thinking about it they will probably routinely save all
encrypted mail for *Justin Case*.

Probably the USA. It's illegal for our government to spy on us, but
contracting someone else to do it outside the country, well that's just
hunky dory.
Conspiracies aside, probably still the USA corporate interests like the
RIAA and MPAA.

Ain't nothin' wrong with paranoia; it's required for all sysadmins and
related functions. Delusional is also ok 'cos you can delude yourself
into thinking you're doing something really important at 'ork
:-) :-)

I never really thought of that benefit of a parlimentary system. You can
actually run with the intent to get one specific area fixed, such as
copyright law, and you don't have to take any particular stance on
terrorism, abortion, or welfare to get elected. Kewl.

That reportedly hasn't stopped the current administration from doing just
that...

Agreed. It seems that too often democratically elected governments seem
to think that since they make the laws they are not necessarily bound by
them - a modification of the Leona Helmsley priciple methinks.
