Earthlink has stated they will do the monitoring of suspects email itself instead of installing any government snooping software. Come on, folks, why would they do that? That's just asking for a whole slew of problems for them. At least if they just let the government do it they can claim they are in no way responsible for what happens.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Is there a way to filter out Dan's postings? He's either over-eager with flame bait, or just not very bright.

    Did you read what Earthlink had to say Dan? It's really pretty easy to understand.

    (though I'm in a bit of a bad mood after Air Canada made me miss my flight to Copenhagen)
