Anti-Terror Bill Requires To Install WinXP
SatireWire | at | by Mike
President Bush signed sweeping anti-terrorism legislation Friday that gives police unprecedented ability to search and eavesdrop by requiring all Americans to install Windows XP. The latest Microsoft operating system, which was released Thursday, XP has come under heavy fire from privacy advocates who say it coerces users into signing up for its Passport and .NET services, which collect extensive personal information and will allow Microsoft to track, profile, and monitor Internet usage without users' knowledge. To access that data, the anti-terror act mandates that the F.B.I. become an official Microsoft partner.
