Privacy Revisited

Privacy Isn't About Anonymity,
Government Says
 
 
The government suddenly wants to redefine privacy to mean that we have no right, ever, to anonymity. Two questions. Does this have anything to do with leaking the names of the whistle blowers in the Justice Department to Dick Cheney? And when will we be issued armbands?
 
Ok. So there are more questions than that. Like did Plame deserve her anonymity?

it is one more instance of the public not being
told what is happening around them. we have
our rights intruded into by sophisticated
electronics or worse, as our environment
becomes more toxic...

The thing to realize, I think, is that now that the government has a delivery system the magnitude of which has never been known before, they'll deliver whatever they see fit to deliver until there is oversight. Any community can thus become an unwitting part of an experiment. At some point long ago the government decided, illegally, that it was ok to experiment on people without their knowing. Now they just do so on a massive scale.
