I assume some criminals are listening into and reading anything I do anyway [criminals including government agents mainly, including NSA, SIS, FBI, SEC, police and any number of others]. I'm less worried about Rupert Murdock and other media people than by government agents who have actual evil-doing power. Murdock and co have to mind their manners as they are subject to defamation laws and other laws. Governments don't care about laws or individuals and will attack at will. But they don't do their actual job which is to protect people, such as avoiding the 3000 killed in the Twin Towers. They had enough information to prevent it. It's amusing that Holder thinks News of the World is bad but they do the same thing [hack into private communications] Holder whining here: <Mr Holder, Barack Obama’s most senior law enforcement official, told relatives during a meeting on Wednesday afternoon that he was “outraged” at the “disgusting and unconscionable” allegations that their loved ones may have been victims of the tabloid phone hacking scandal, according to one who attended the meeting. He said American authorities were treating the claims very seriously and that Robert Mueller, the Director of the FBI, was being “updated almost every day” on the progress of an inquiry by his agency, which was prompted by a report in The Daily Mirror last month. It said that an American private investigator, who frequently worked for tabloid newspapers, had been asked by journalists from The News of the World to obtain phone records from mobiles belonging to victims of the 9/11 attacks.“Three thousand Americans were murdered that day and I am outraged at the idea that someone may have hacked them or their families in order to sell newspapers,” said Mr Holder, according to the relative, who was one of 10 present in the 75-minute meeting in Washington, DC. > There is no reason Warren Buffett should retire if he enjoys what he's doing. If his shareholders like him and he likes doing it, good for him and them. <as for WB, I think he should gracefully retire why he still has a chance. > Mqurice
