Just an fyi:

* Copy the exact headline of the story into the headline field, don't make one up or sensationalise it. Submissions with inaccurate, biased or otherwise deceptive headlines may be moved, closed or deleted. Obviously, some editorial latitude will be allowed if the original headline is too long (gets truncated) or too obscure.

But to the article:

"We have to make sure this is not a back door for spying on Americans," Harman told Newsweek.

Yea right, when do they start to care about American citizens. They will continue to do whatever they want, whenever they want.

The correct title you could use would be:

Bush Plans to Expand Spy Satellite Use

To Change your title you would go to edit and at the top where it says NSA spying out of control, you could change it that way.

But, don't worry about it, I was just pointing it out for future threads. You are fine though...

Awesome---

In a society where I am already photographed at almost every single place I shop, bank, or do personal business - as well as a vast number of traffic intersections that I pass through, the idea of having my picture taken from space seems very non-threatening and redundant. If any of the "three letter" organizations want my mug shot they have but to ask the local gas station to provide it. Or, easier still, simply access the DMV data base.

But if Big Brother wants to allocate the outrageous funds that it would require to mug shot me from orbit, then fine. I just ask that he send me a copy because a space picture would really make my MySpace profile stand out.

Based on this revelation:

Photographer Documents Secret Satellites — All 189 of Them

I think it's safe to surmise that a lot of entities have the capability to capture imaging data without permission or fear of prosecution.

It could certainly enhance much more than your personal web space.
