Big brother arrives June 30th.

Well,there goes private e-mail.



Thank you for using ZipLip’s free secure mail service. We appreciate your patronage and wish to inform you that we will be discontinuing our service on June 30th, 2005. For various reasons, including new U.S. legislation which significantly impacts the individual’s privacy rights, ZipLip is no longer able to provide its free secure email services with any reasonable assurance of privacy and security, particularly in the context of a hosted service. We will revisit the service issue when our legislature reinstates our privacy rights.

1. If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear.

:crazy:

on edit: I guess I needed to say this was Ashcroftian-Fleischer-speak.

2. Then walk naked throughout the rest of your life.

If you don't fear the loss of privacy and the rise of the fascist state your are a fool.

3. I edited it to ensure you know it was sarcasm.

4. Yet another sign of the impending Dark Times?

That is absolutely chilling, Swede....thanks for posting the link!

I believe that speaking openly and publically helps preserve our right to free speech, however, that is a personal decision to be made. It appears that BushCo is telling Americans that we all must speak ONLY publically. Somehow, I don't think this is what the Founding Fathers had in mind....:grr:

I am passing this along to a few friends and media folk.

8. How can they do that though?

Not everybody who uses the Email services are in the United States. So how is this possible?

5. Which legislation?

Is it the Patriot Act II?
