The Legal Industry

Boing Boing

"The world's largest Internet search company and the world's most powerful electronic surveillance organization are teaming up in the name of cybersecurity," reads the opening line from this Washington Post report. The National Security Agency is reported to be finalizing an agreement with Google to analyze the recent and much-publicized hack attack Google says originated in China, targeting its networks."

I'm sure glad that both partners have promised not to leave any backdoors, trojans, or dangling participles behind the other's firewall. Remember, there's a guilty until proven innocent provision in the Patriot Act and the upcoming copyright treaty. The current SCOTUS is probably very comfortable with that. NSFW may become Not Safe At All before you can say "Industrial Law".
