Quote of the day–John Gilmore

In most of Europe, phone companies don’t record the phone numbers when you call, and they don’t show up on your bill.  They only tick off the charges on a meter.  Now, I was told that this is partly because the Nazis used the call records that they used to have, to track and identify the opposition after taking over those countries in World War II.  They don’t keep those records any more.
