Now, I am not an american citizen, but if I was, the thought that my e-mails might be scanned, or telephone conversations wiretapped, or my house searched without a proper court order, that sure is troubling.

Ironic that one would call this biggest erosion of privacy laws in the history of the US "patriot act"

It implies that anyone who is against it, must be unpatriotic. And who wants to be labelled like that ?
