I know I have nothing to hide. My worst offense ever was a speeding ticket. However, I know I would be totally against a search in my home because they "suspect" something. Who's to say that they won't start doing random searches w/o a warrant without just cause? What, then, separates us from a Communist country? Last week I read a story that claimed the DoJ or Dept of H.S. wants broadband service providers to reconfigure their systems to allow easier and more constant government surveillance. They propose that the cost of doing this (astronomically high, if I remember correctly) should be defrayed by passing it on to the consumers. So, basically, you will pay more to be monitored by the feds without your knowledge or consent. Scared yet?
