I don't worry that many ordinary humans read my words, but I am a bit
concerned that a government agency, whose activities are secret to me
and practically everyone else is possibly reading my mail and doing who
knows what with it.  Wether it's an invasion of privacy or not is another
question.  If all of the machines are privately owned and operated, then
I would say it definitly is.  I'm sure that there are almost as many
opinions on that as there are people on the net.
