"going on up to the 'Server in the Sky'" - our hopes for democracy?

...only HOURS after Canada's diplomatic corps identified the US as a torturing state...

:exclaim:
THEN the pressure came down & it was rescinded. (gee, what's wrong? Truth hurts?)

& the Harper government declared its intention to *sign on* to the Server in the Sky project.

coincidentally... the Privacy Commissioner of Canada KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THIS PROGRAM until they read about in British papers... & had previously blogged a concern about our flagging state of privacy...

"We have a saying in this business: ‘Privacy and security are a zero-sum game.’�

This quote is attributed to Ed Giorgio, a former chief code breaker at the National Security Agency and current security consultant who is working on a plan proposed by the American government to closely monitor all Internet traffic in order to protect their information architecture from attack.

The problem with this perspective, though, is that it ignores the complementary nature of the two. As security guru Bruce Schneier responds, “Privacy is part of our security against government abuse.�

:question: what do YOU know about the Server in the Sky?
what do YOU know about the STATE of international privacy?

:exclaim: ACT NOW & CONTACT YOUR LOCAL REPRESENTATION.

ask yourself what you believe your Gov't should know ABOUT YOU?
