I agree, but you have to realize that for most of us the world and his uncle are not interested in every little thing about us so it requires little effort to keep them from learning it. I think that's what most people who say "I have no secrets" really mean, though they haven't thought it through that way. I don't want a Webcam in my bathroom but I'm also quite confident that no one is about to attempt to put one there. The door and the lack of outside windows suffices to secure the place. I do not approve of the spying activities of governments and I despise the criminals who seek to do things like identity theft, but when planning practical security measures you have to consider the threat model and the value of the data being protected. Also consider that those who really do have serious secrets are not likely to brag about it. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
