Bill re-witten to allow the government to read your email.

The government is just too much for me. I don't like what they're trying to do...do we not have freedom anymore

The government doesn't want to read my e-mail. Other than school stuff, the rest is sex, violence, and cookies (which is a code word for sex).

Well~ Doesn't an already existing law allow the government to do something similar to that? 1867 National Defense Authorization Act...I think along the lines that if you are suspected of being a terrorist and what not basically the government can throw the bill of rights out the window. Although I think that is restricted to illegal aliens? I am not sure either way I am sure stuff like that has been happening for ages...

This hits basically where I was going to go with it. The government set the precedent with the revision to the NDAA, which allowed the government to declare ANYONE (citizen or alien) to be a military combatant and hold them indefinitely without due process. Though, this email stuff stems from the SOPA/PIPA (I imagine it might even be the same person) bills. The Supreme Court will overturn this if it gets passed. The Supreme Court has set the opposite precedent, putting them at an impasse most of the time.
