Exclamation Browser choice / Civil Liberties!

W00T!

Someone I know well enough to trust sent me to this link and it really got me thinking!

I felt I ought to share here - almost posted under security, but it does not really go there and we have no current affairs forum - so it is here.

I'll be interested to read peoples replies on the issues it brings up!

BTW read right to the end of the page - maybe I should have posted in jokes and humour when you see the last bit

hehe, well looking at the mess the national security is in in this country i find this very easy to believe. However when i looked further into the other news stories... i think the brittish government is trying everything they can do remove humans rights.

So using Konqueror from Debian and not releasing any information about anything is bad. Wait, isn't that called being secure? No, it must be hacking.



Right..........
