    That is the point I was trying to make when I replied to another poster. There is no room for a central information gatekeeper. I'm so glad I never signed up to use any social medi…

    Very nice. When the government calls us a terrorist for wanting privacy and using VPN's, then it's time to embrace the label. I have no problem with what ever name they throw at me…

    I long for the day when someone will stand up to Israel always bullying and terrorizing helpless people. At least curb their incessant spying...
