Listen to the Geeks on Privacy

FOX news finally reports on the government can turn your cellphone into a bug, remotely, without your knowledge story and Gizmodo doesn't believe it. Sigh it's true, and yes "that's some seriously creepy and privacy-invading business right there".

Engadget at least gets it right when it reports that the government does care if your passport can be cloned. Wouldn't it be nice if they did? Really, passports shouldn't be remotely readable.

And I hoped people would listen about the voting machines, but I guess we'll have the same discussions in two years but still no solution. Sigh.
