Interesting what's happening over there in the U.S.:

I found the youtube segment featuring John Oliver extremely amusing and a little disturbing at the same time.

In other parts of the world, closer to home for me, the political issue is focussed on meta-data:
Meta-data Retention in Australia (http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/malcolm-turnbull-introduces-legislation-for-metadata-retention-scheme-20141030-11e101.html)
Years ago, enforcement agencies were limited to wire taps and fossicking through your rubbish. Those were the days when it all took a little more effort.

Oh well, I'll just enjoy what MC has to offer in the meantime..  ;)
