    All the world, to me...But, each day we seem to be losing the battle to defend it.

    "I received a lovely email from Epson’s customer service desk (yes I was one of those customers!), which informed me that my data cannot be accessed by non-authorised parties and is secured at all times. Well thank you, but it’s not as secure as it is right now since I have not given them to you."

    Great answer. Prevention is better than cure.

    I cant place a dollar amount on it, but I can say that without privacy the 1st and 4th amendments dont exist.

    No product is worth that cost. Im fighting the fight holed up on Linux and Firefox, but through my screen I see more and more privacy evaporating.

    And the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ....
    Article 12.

    " No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation.
    Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks."
