..crowded with both people and dogs.

to those know administrate the datacenters, your data is a surreptitious 'su' away, by hook or by crook. how do you 'spose anonymous does it?

what Snowden exposes is the same thing Manning exposed when he downloaded classified info onto a CD and walked out the fucking door.
