thank you yahoo!

thank you for giving into the white house’s subpoena! considering the amount of personal information i have entrusted you with, both personal and financial, i am now extremely concerned about your privacy policy. you need to address this issue immediately, or you willl lose one customer, WITHOUT QUESTION.

oh and by the way, i don’t care if the next subpoena says that the white house wants to use the information to SAVE PUPPIES. i, for one, don’t believe much of anything that comes out of that office these days. the information was used to research child pornography, to protect children? PLEASE. anyone who believes that is naive or in denial.

UPDATE: phil makes the point in comments that MSN “works closely with law enforcement officials worldwide to assist them when requested”. that’s why i already DO NOT use MSN. but i do use yahoo, and have for years. my reaction in posting this is really out of a sense of PERSONAL VIOLATION.
