Dave-


My next column in The Independent (London) will be about privacy, and the
pandora's box that seems to be daily opening wider.


My theme: if the American President isn't immune to having very personal
data "outed" on the Net and globally circulated within seconds, what chance
have mere citizens?


In any case, I thought IPers might have some very interesting insights on
the topic. I'd be delighted if any and all would offer their thoughts, for
attribution or in confidence.
