Look Upon This Article and Despair

We recently wrote a piece for Sloganeering.org about government access to phone records and the implications therein. Today, we came across this:

"Banks, Internet-service providers and other companies that possess large amounts of data on their customers say that police and intelligence agencies have been increasingly coming to them looking for tidbits of information that could help them stop everything from money launderers to pedophiles and terrorists."

As we pointed out in our article, privacy isn't just for criminals, and people should be upset that the average American citizen's information is no longer safe.

We know it's been awhile since we have posted anything, and not because there's nothing for us to write about. Quite the opposite - there's just too much.

And we don't really like the internet any more either.
