What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Yes, but in all honesty people really don't care so they forgot. Now they are outraged because the press is telling to be outraged but they will forget again, because they still really don't care.McAvoy wrote:Wasn't this known for several years now anyway?

Re: Funny pics
I actually don't care. More than half of what the media says is wrong anyway (Feds too, don't get me wrong I don't trust them outside a volcano).
Also, if you look it is 100% legal. The companies can share whatever they like, as long as they don't allow things to be done to your account (payments modified, calls made with your number, emails sent with your account, etc). Don't like it, don't use the company... good luck not having phone or internet.

Re: Funny pics
While it is true that if the NSA (or PRISM, or whoever) asks for phone records, the carrier may voluntarily and legally turn them over - the fact remains that they are under no compulsion to do so. A dick move is a dick move, regardless of legal legitimacy.

Re: Funny pics
Section 605 of the Communications Act makes it illegal for any persons to intercept or divulge wire or radio communications without the authorization of the sender of the communications, so no, it isn't legal. Although, I suppose they just put that into the contract, right? It's unconstitutional, and most definitely a dick move.

Re: Funny pics
That's all well and good, but has nothing to do with what the NSA has done. Call durations, locations from which calls were placed, etc., are the data which has been given by the carriers to the NSA. Don't worry, though, you don't have to twist definitions about legality in order to call it wrong. The unauthorized wiretaps, etc., that W. started under the aegis of the "Patriot Act" are the types of things that are actually forbidden under the code you mentioned.Tsukiyumi wrote:Section 605 of the Communications Act makes it illegal for any persons to intercept or divulge wire or radio communications without the authorization of the sender of the communications, so no, it isn't legal.
