Still, this isn't quite my point. The original post made no mention of M* while discussing the possible spying on English citizens. Why not? Aren't they as likely to be working WITH the CIA/NSA as against?
It looks like the reason that MI? isnt listed is that these are privacy advocates in the UK that are questioning the US's rights to snoop. That is; a non-govt body is questioning a foreign govts right to snoop on their citizens. While I doubt if the British privacy advocates can sue to get their own ministry of intelligence to stop snooping (like our infamous EFF vs AT&T/ACLU vs NSA/ETC vs ETC) suit) on them, it is an interesting tactic to try and get ours to stop doing so. While British law may grant MI? the rights to snoop on citizens, it most certainly doesnt grant the US intelligence the same rights. -JP _______________________________________________ privacy mailing list privacy () whitestar linuxbox org http://www.whitestar.linuxbox.org/mailman/listinfo/privacy
