FBI Asks Internet-Based Corporations & Social Sites To Be Wiretap-Ready.
"F*** Privacy, and F*** the 4th Amendment (If You're American) LULZ", says the FBI!
There's something that certain forum members will be familiar with is the whole concept of the rise of the Big Brother culture and the rise in surveillance in our digital lives, and as the push for increased monitoring and regulation of the digital world continues, the FBI has urged Internet-based corporations to not oppose any laws encouraging the FBI to be able to wiretap into their services for surveillance purposes.
The FBI have apparently also got involved in discussions with Microsoft, Facebook, Yahoo and Google to ensure that they can be able to build backdoor access routes to their services for such privacy-invading purposes, and from there, the FBI wants companies to allow them to simply approve of such privacy-compromising plans, which will have damning consequences for the users of such services as the concept of digital privacy as a whole is under threat, and it doesn't seem to be the "last nail in the coffin" either for such laws and proposals.

George Orwell must be spinning in his grave. Not just because of this, but all the other shit the governments all around the world have been pulling on us. That and people being too blinded by entertainment and consumerism to actually give a fuck.
