While I doubt if the British privacy advocates can sue to get their own ministry of intelligence to stop snooping (like our infamous EFF vs AT&T/ACLU vs NSA/ETC vs ETC) suit) on them,I don't know why you assume that. I'm not even sure why you'd assume it would be unsuccessful. I might, but I don't have much faith in anyone's version of democracy...
I was assuming this because thats what happens in this country when you try and sue the govt. I just assume that all democracies are equally corrupt ;-)
They can't sue their own country, according to you,I'm not sure how you sue a country...
This may be a lost in translation thing. A lawsuit is the only way to change a law in this country. You can sue people, pets, corporations, govt agencies, states, fish, etc. ;-) -JP "We have had 2,600 years to prove democracy works, and have as of yet failed to provide such proof" -JP _______________________________________________ privacy mailing list privacy () whitestar linuxbox org http://www.whitestar.linuxbox.org/mailman/listinfo/privacy
