[governance] Saving the Net

[Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond]

Hello all,

this complaining about the (mainly US) Private Sector collecting
information, working hand in hand with Governments to turn the Internet
(and the world) into a huge Big Brother State contrasts with the message
that the accused in this article are sending out:
http://reformgovernmentsurveillance.com/

So everybody's accusing everybody else in this story.

Somewhere among all of this virtual smoke lies the truth.

Kind regards,

Olivier
