Newscoma shares the Facebook photo deception which is very, very funny if you have ever watched the Dove evolution self-esteem campaign. Listen closely as you watch the two videos. And you should show the Dove evolution film to your children! Because self-esteem is important.

The Washington Post brings us a story from Mark Klein, a former AT&T technician, about the AT&T secret room used by the NSA to copy the entire Internet.

He knew that the NSA was supposed to work on overseas signals intelligence. … "This splitter was sweeping up everything, vacuum-cleaner-style," he said. "The NSA is getting everything. These are major pipes that carry not just AT&T’s customers but everybody’s." … the NSA was doing content analysis. [Source, The Washington Post, A Story of Surveillance]

Do you feel safer giving your government unchecked authority?
