Maybe the FBI did not want another "Twitter Revolution" like what was tried in Moldova. That sword cuts both ways, guys.

The British are currently openly running a recruitment advert for mathematicians to work at GCHQ (their electronic spying centre) - presumably to help develop more effective methods to monitor such communications.

Recently, the Satiric and last honest french newspaper: "le Canard Enchainé" published a book on that subject.
We know for a fact that in France, every citizen is spying on in six or seven different manners. Naturally, our prostitute medias and politicians will publish well informed stories about fredom of speech and journalists'killing in China and Russia. This hypocrisy has been going on for nearly a century and russian leaders still have not understood that it will stop only when Russia will have given the controle of its huges ressources to the multi-national western corporations and their oligarchs. Nobody care about missiles' defence, military budgets, peoples' safety, H1N1 flue etc. Throught Internet, desturbing realities circulate among to many peoples; the Julius Cesar' s
theory which I recalled in earlier forums could loose its grab on mankind; consequence: Danger for the elites !
Those creeps-"bastards" have a cash-register instead of brain and now they realize than Internet is their ennemi.
I , myself have a lot of problems with my Internet (beside, I do not pretend to be an expert) my telephone line play tricks on me and France-Telecoms' experts make me turn around and around. I must be tricky also to protect my back.: I do most of my interventions in english; mentioning than I still have connexions in the USA ( french decisions'makers are the best "putains" and "collabos" than mankind has ever produced; it is in their genes). I, also have the chance to live at 30 km from Geneva, Switzerland where I have good relations with the CERN' scientits.
(those peoples are a lot more interesting and intelligent than the politicians than we see on the whole Earth'surface
Unfortunatly they have no power and do not wish to have any).
Conclusion: my slogan Sorry Future Generations has never been so evident. I say Thank You to Internet and RTTV
(Nevertheless, russians could help initiating a change. So far: Niet, Niet, Niet. Sincerely. Jean-Claude Meslin

Here in the UK it is very well known that our government monitors mobile cellular telephone traffic, but it is not so well known that it also monitors social networking sites. Apparently these sites, along with various 'forums' and 'chatrooms' have previously been used by 'suspected terrorists' to keep in touch.

This is obviously going on in the US at various levels, however this public advertisement of the practice by a US agency, and over a small issue, has now put this practice well and truly in the public arena. It will be interesting to see how much, if any, coverage this story will get in the UK (and the US for that matter).
