   @jgcarpenter @dalias What did happen in 2002 that threatened data?
   
   I wasn't exactly much online then.

     @GM7077 @dalias @jgcarpenter Oh I see. I was wondering if there had been another disastrous political event or other that had led to issues back then.

     @dalias @lispi314 @jgcarpenter @GM7077 Yep. Our nation fell into paranoia, and a bunch of scared old men brought us the Patriot Act. Our rights have been whittled down so gradually that many don't even know what has been stolen from them.
