29 September 2010 - wiretap the net
< yesterday --

Federal law enforcement intends to propose broad new powers to
wiretap the internet, revealed the New York Times on Monday.
“We’re not asking for any new authority,” explained FBI
spokesgod Zeus Rustock. “We’ve always had the power to compel
companies to spend billions to compromise their own security
architectures and enable cyberwar on a scale never before
seen. All that’s changed is that we’ve seen Stuxnet and we
thought we’d like to try too. Besides, everybody’s doing it.”
clue:
I think the biggest objection to the plan is not that it
compromises privacy, but that it compromises security,
which it is supposedly intended to improve.
Zeus and Rustock are the names of major criminal botnets.
give me a clue so sweet and true
