User talk:Bill From Spokane

There seems to be increased disregard for the private data of United States citizens on the part of government and industry. Examples would include warrantless searches at the direction of our President, telephone company agreements to provide confidential data in the absence of a warrant, and presently, a federal court order requiring defendant, Google, to turn over private information on it's end users to plaintiff, Viacom, in a CIVIL case where compensatory damages are being sought in the absence of any criminal allegation.

My concern is that the Nazi rulers of Germany had a similar fixation with the private data of citizens and used it for the worst of purposes. Don't kid yourself. It can happen here! A note of protest to Viacom and the court of Judge Louis Stanton, who is hearing the Viacom case, is in order.
