Bush Keeps Privacy Posts Vacant: President Bush has kept top civil liberty and privacy posts unfilled, even as the controversy over White House-ordered eavesdropping on Americans enters its second month.
Is anyone afraid of Internet anonymity? But that reminds me of this joke:
Vladimir Putin is online before a group of reporters. He reads out loud: "A question came, anonymously, 'Hey, Vova,' it says, 'are you not scared by the anonymous users on the Internet?"'
Putin looks at the journalists and writes (and reads aloud) the response: "To the author of the anonymous question, the user with IP address 193.200.15.129, using the Internet service provider Vladivostok.net, living on Lenin Prospekt 3, floor 2, apartment 8, Ivan Ivanovich Ivanov, I respond: No, I am not scared by the anonymous users on the Internet."
