Hypocrisy Watch: Internet Monitoring

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Apparently Senators Schumer and Graham are upset enough about Iran's efforts to monitor it's citizens' Internet activities that they want to ban Seimens and Nokia from future contracts with the federal government. According to Graham...

"The Internet has proven to be one of the strongest weapons in the hands of the Iranian people seeking freedom and trying to chart a new destiny for their country. Companies that provide technology to the Iranian regime to control the Internet must be forced to pay a heavy price."

Why aren't the Senators going after NSA's activities in the Pinwale program with the same fervor? Or is it only wrong to meddle with the Internet when you're not the US government?
