Wow! Maybe the US won’t turn into a technology-driven police state, as all recent indications had pointed toward (and as I had cynically expected, as the “security” apparatus has more money, and thus influence, than ordinary citizens).
Between this and the SOPA uprising, my flagging hope for the US has been renewed.
The US won’t have a police state, the 50 states are already more than they can handle already. 😉
