E-mail privacy to disappear?
Mark Rasch, 2007-11-02

On October 8, 2007, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in Cincinnati granted the government's request for a full-panel hearing in United States v. Warshak case centering on the right of privacy for stored electronic communications. At issue is whether the procedure whereby the government can subpoena stored copies of your e-mail -- similar to the way they could simply subpoena any physical mail sitting on your desk -- is unconstitutionally broad.

Frankly what scares me more is I had to learn of this from The Register, an online publication from England.

Its becoming more and more obvious the government controls the media far too much. This happened before in Germany, I hope we don't fall down the same path.
