   It seems all the blogspot addresses are resolving locally. I now get keepingstock.blogspot.com.au for Keeping Stock, asianinvasion2006.blogspot.com.au for Cactus Kate. nzconservative.blogspot.com.au for NZ Conservative.

   And you tell me google aren’t evil?

   “And you tell me google aren’t evil?”
   Heh..I’ve regarded the bastards as evil for a long time now, Gantt. Which is why I got my own domain and wrestle with WordPress rather than the ease of use of Blogger. I won’t even use Google search. Ixquick is better, more secure and less biased.
   I doubt this latest move of theirs will cause much outrage at all–the sheeple will just shrug.

   I rest my case. Lucia Maria just wrote (at that link above) “there’s pluses and minuses really”.
   I’m sure that’s what Chinese dissidents say….not!

   This year, I’m paranoid for having Hushmail. By next year it will look like an ordinary commonsense precaution.

     It is utterly astonishing how fast the USA is going down the toilet – when you reach the point where the underwear of little old ladies in wheelchairs is being searched by Government apparatchiks before boarding a plane you know its game over,

     Why the Americans are standing for this sort of crap is a mystery to me

     Great stuff, Lucia Maria. And I think Zen’s comment is spot-on:
     “..It’s a new form of fascism where the government still acts as a police state, but it gets corporates to actually do all the leg work, and rather than taxes going up.”
