Your DVR Is Watching You

,----[ Quote ]
| Back in March of 2008, Comcast's Gerard Kunkel proclaimed that Comcast was 
| experimenting with embedding cameras in your DVR or cable box, allowing the 
| company to know exactly who is watching what, at what time.

'Uh-Oh They're Here'

,----[ Quote ]
| A 34-YEAR-OLD woman, the mother of a 12-year-old girl, has been locked up in 
| a Virginia jail for three weeks and could remain there for at least another 
| month. Her crime? Blogging about the police.

How to get anything approved.

,----[ Quote ]
| You can trust today's DIA (maybe), but really do you trust them in 5 years
| time? 10 years? 20 years? Once the filter is in it's a trivial thing for a
| future government (or maybe just an unelected public servant) to change it to
| a completely different sort of filter. Suddenly all info on a policial
| movement is gone (think the anti-communism era that wasn't so long ago) - or
| all info on cannibas - or all perhaps anything that ridicules MPs... All you
| gotta do is say it's to "stop child porn" and you can do anything.
