I cant say I noticed a difference myself in Ireland , surely its only miniscule amounts of data we transfer here anyway .
So looks like Facebook is killing the internet and our illusions about governance.
The 'fundamental' of innocent until proven guilty is being made an ass of worldwide , trial via social media as well as unwanted intrusions into our privacy on the basis of terrorism laws. No amount of intel will beat back the 'Hun' from the gates while the west pours fuel on the fire in the middle east , strongly looks now like D.T. is arching up conflict with Iran in time to catch the swing vote in the elections. If the self appointed leader of the western worlds example to the rest of us is terroristic drone strikes with no basis under the laws of war is all fine and dandy , why wouldnt we expect our adversaries to to use similar unschedualed acts of war back against us , maybe thats precisely the plan. I think its fairly clear , the use of weaponry like drones does as much to bolster enemy resolve as it does to swell the ranks at home .
You know what they used say here, the Reverend Ian Paisley was the biggest biggest gift to IRA recruitment ever , is it any wonder he lived into his late 80's . His High Donaldness is looking like a goose who layed the golden egg for the other side to help further his own political ambition .
