Re: One law for us

These days the lines have been intentionally blurred by grasping idjits who think things like "Wow! We've built this great infrastructure for snarfling up the communications of obviously devious foreigners. Imagine the good it would do if we aimed that at our own people!"

No real need to build anything other than your intranets. For everything else, there's Siri, Alexa, Skype etc. It's a funny old world where the TLAs have to jump through hoops to bug a property, and the commercial intelligence gathering agencies just use marketing to sell their own bugs.. And can even provide transcripts of private phone calls. It's outsourcing gorn mad I tell you!

(also curious if Skype's transcription service notifies all parties on a call that their conversation will be recorded.)
