[Dailydave] The Neutron Star

[Jonathan Brossard]

Dear list,

First of, I don't mean to offend anyone : nobody gets to chose where
they were born. I also don't quite think most of you had their say on US
spying policy (well, some readers of DD probably did in fact...).

Reading this thread was absolutly delightful. I'm sure many non US
citizens will have equally loved to see how you guys can be blind when
it comes to your own core values and trust in your government. The
cultural difference is interresting :)

It seems all of you denying even the possibility of economical espionage
were proved very wrong by the recent developments :

unless of course you consider the European Union as a "terrorist" group.

What strikes me is how the US created the internet, which is unarguably
the medium of universalism, while their own values are totally opposite
(In particular, I don't think "all men are equal" to be part at all of
American values or history. See for instance

only 50 years ago !).

Cheers,
