The 9/11 surveillance legacy

Today's posting is about a topic that I assume Robert Anton Wilson would have been interested in: 10 years after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks (or whatever you believe it was), domestic surveillance of U.S. citizens has scaled up, as this Los Angeles Times article discusses. (The government can bug your phone and break into your home these days, without having to get permission from a judge first. What could go wrong?)
