Says it all…
This notice of a topic thread sort of had the unintended consequence of speaking most eloquently… and I have to agree with the “top answer”.
Related: Yesterday, I put up a link to an article that I think everyone who uses the Internet should get hopping mad about.. yet less than 1% of visitors thought to click the link and take a look-see.
“The U.S. House of Representatives is currently considering H.R. 1981, a bill that would order our online service providers to keep new logs about our online activities, logs to help the government identify the web sites we visit and the content we post online. This sweeping new “mandatory data retention” proposal treats every Internet user like a potential criminal and represents a clear and present danger to the online free speech and privacy rights of millions of innocent Americans.”
Please, take an interest, click here, and take a look at what I am talking about. It is talking about you.. not some faceless, unknown “millions” in some other state. You and I.
… shoulda called this bill H.R. 1984

• About Tech Paul
I am a Retired computer & network technician. I used to think the machines were pretty cool. Now I don’t.
They’re anything but.
I regularly posted how-to’s and tricks & tips and general computing advice here starting in 2007. (Use the Search tool to find answers. But be aware, many are rather dated.) Sometimes I answered (your) specific questions in an article if I believed the answer was generally helpful to “everyone”. All the writing you see was my own, typos and all. There always is/was an implied “IMHO” in what you see here.
Note: You are responsible for using this blog and its content. I am in no way liable for any losses caused by user error, viruses and/or other malware, hardware or software failure, or any other conceivable reason.
