Ever come across a news item about a horrid application of technology, think you’ve bookmarked it, and later come to discover that you can’t find it in your bookmarks and can’t seem to come up with the right search terms to find it on the web? I did. Very recently, though, I got the search terms right and found Mobile Labs to Target Iraqis for Death by Robert Parry at Consortiumnews.com.

I hope the biometric-data lab-in-a-box has not been deployed for the purpose of facilitating summary executions, and won’t be.

I will call a few offices today, I will say;

“why do you want telecoms to keep intellectual property they have stolen, and if they have used information to help the administration blackmail lawmakers, why do you want them to get away with that?

Thanks, cbl2, I actually had it bookmarked and had forgotten, but was looking for a file where I had saved only the instructions. I was actually remembering this post:
Late Nite FDL: Home Security By Strunk and White

And FWIW, I found it using Google, because the search on FDL brought up 700+ posts, nearly all of which must be useless…I didn’t take time to read thru all of them.

How ironic they schedule the vote to eviscerate the 4th Amendment falls on the same day of the McClellan testimony before the HJC.

Or in the Western tradition, we might light a special candle for a special congresscritter.
