An item I noticed published on the internet by a firewall expert may be of
interest to this thread. It certainly matched my experiences.
"When I started working on firewalls I was surprised to learn the company I
worked for were more interested in "spying" on their employees then keeping
crackers out of their networks."
Crackers and organisational politics, with access to personal data becoming
no more than a power play and privacy merely reduced to a respectful
deniability whatever next.

Hi Tim,
For your points to be taken seriously you should stop top-posting (the same
applies to others). Surely - Shirley even if you like airplane (the film
that is) - your comment is not more important than the one you responded to,
however much you may think so.
If you can rant so can I. Free country 'n all that.
My most significant contribution to your issue is ...
Geez. The end is near.
Aye ...
:-)
