New story about how US/British government was surveilling World of Warcraft and Second Life since probably 2008 - domestic and international players alike.

Link to NY Times Article

So it's only a matter of time till we find out that online poker is in the bunch, and probably long before BF.

Kinda funny picturing the analyst whose job it was to spend his days combing through PokerStars chat logs, saying, "Okay, here's yet another person who has threatened to kill someone in a grease fire."

The idea that they may have been monitoring my chat both repulses and amuses me.

Actually, it is a well kept secret, but CIA found Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, through his Poker Stars Account. SN: LOL.Boxcutters

Given the amount of insults I hurl at my opponents at the table, I may have destroyed the poor soul that had to go through all that.

The NSA/CIA/FBI would need a specialized department to go through all of zigmunds chat logs.
