Mmmm.....I thought government was supposed to be by the people for the people. What right to they have to tell us what information we may or may not have "for our own good"? Gary was not hacking into private individual's property (which the government does every single day by the way - who gave them permission to do that? I certainly didn't) he was accessing information that should be readily available to the occupants of planet earth.
