I hate child pornography with all my being. If the guilty people were put to death, it would be fine with me. I would actually enjoy knowing they are dead. In fact, call me, I will pull the switch.
But here is something that disturbs me greatly. AOL intercepted a suspicious email, and led the police to the address. I have long known that email is not private, but this screams it loud and clear.

Of course, the link will eventually disappear, so I have copied and pasted it at the end of this letter for anyone to read. The bad part is that since I use AOL mail, they will scan this before you receive it.
Never think for a second that anything other that quiet personal conversation is safe from Big Brother. So you don't use AOL? Don't worry, your ISP is under the watchful eye of Big Brother too.
