<br>
At this point (actually since 911) I am WAY more afraid of my own
government then any so called "terrorist". And I don't mind if they
know that, obviously, since I posted this. <br>

Could you be any less specific? If anyone's constitutional
rights are being trampled from this data mining then we
already have a system in place to roll back the worst abuses.<br>
