The FBI quite likes 'privacy' when it comes to access to its records
*As a student of technological change, one has to
live for moments of irony like this.
*Since the latest ChoicePoint debacle there has been
a sudden vogue for outfits revealing that their extensive
files on customers have been misplaced or stolen.
We're awash in privacy-invading data and it's
impossible to keep track of it all, no matter what
the law says. It's like making second-hand smoke
illegal. Okay, you can do that, but as long as
there are cigarettes piled by the carton in every
newsstand and grocery, well....
