Right, because GCHQ doesn't/hasn't/never would do such a thing...

At least the US has a written constitution and the concept of the people being sovereign.

I'll take that over trusting "Her Majesty's..." whatever.

But then again, I'm Irish, so I have a bit more direct personal and familial experience of the darker side of British 
"civilization". (EG: While detention without trial is relatively NEW in the US, it's been a fact of life in the UK for 
most of its history).

It looks like this demo is

a bunch of sick press and sick ex-gov wishtheycouldbeagains
trying to
get as much mindshare as they can.  and you're helping
them.

I refuse to let you say I am helping them -- I am from UK, I don't
agree with them wanting to allow The NSA to take over private sector
networks or citizens smart phones 'in an emergency'.
