“It’s the largest database ever assembled in the world,” the paper quoted one source as saying. The agency’s goal is “to create a database of every call ever made” within U.S. borders, it said the source added.


Pardon my language but this is un-****ing believable. This is also blatantly illegal. There are two very important questions that we need to ask here. One of them is why are they doing this? The other is what is it REALLY for?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Uhhh, it's been going on for a very long time, and to this point, no one has dissapeared over a phonecall.  Hell, the History Channel had a special about the NSA and the database. 

This is going to happen in any nation that you go to, whether officially or unofficially.  Unless you live in anarchy or something.

Hey, at least MR. BUSH says our privacy is being fiercely protected. And after all, he's well known for telling the truth and following the law, isn't he?

Right?

Your idea of an anarchic society sounds rather pleasant. I'll take that over fascism.
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

No you won't.

None of you will.
