I don't understand why Cory Doctorow "can't stress how exciting a development this is". Google appears to be freely giving up metadata (eg. email headers, IP addresses, etc.) to US government agencies, but drawing the line at content. In an age of guilt by association, it's like ratting someone out to HUAC as a communist, but refusing to specify whether they're Leninist, Trotskyist, or Maoist.

Well, this is reasurring. So Coffs is actually quite affordable for people who don't need to work and absentee landlords. It's only the people who live and work here who are disadvantaged by our third-world economy.
I'm so relieved I'm taking the day off from my below-minimum-wage job to join my neighbours in the gutter. We'll crack open a can of petrol and a pack of period pain medication and celebrate the good times!
