Protect myself

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why, when the Government decides it's okay to spy on us, I shall be using a proxy set-up via ssh to a server in the US. SSH is encrypted, so let them crack those packets to "deep inspect" them. :P

I'll also be starting to use PGP more for my emails, even non-vital ones.

Not until the government realises those who would seek to get by their filters can, and they call off their own DPI, will I relax my security.
