Some reports say that the breakin to Google accessed the systems that automatically leak—er, funnel—er, stream—er, gush data to law enforcement with no need for search warrants. Why should we object if the information which one government takes by decree is also stolen by another legally constituted governing authority? Most of us can’t even spell “jurisdiction”. No, the real problem is that access is only granted to organizations rich enough to afford their own zero-day exploits. We demand equal rights for stalkers and cat burglars!
