I was browsing a pc forum and came across this reply from someone who asked a question about msn messenger:

" did you know that everything you type in MSN goes through a MS Server and as soon as you enter a key word you conversation is automaticly recorded? not only that, but through msn - MS have a detailed profile on almost everybody that uses it age, location ect... and there have been rumores of MS selling info to the government. now is that Big Brother or what??"

Thats gotta be the biggest loud of bull!!

It is true, as Greg said everything we say is passed through filters and any key words are flagged up for investigation.

Search engines, phone conversations, texts, MSN, AOL, emails... It goes on and on.
Its been going on for years!

I highly doubt MSN have a list of people that they sell to the government.. Infact I think that can be dismissed.

Technology is great - but every key stroke, text or conversation leaves either an audit trail or verbal evidence.

I firmly believe the opening post was absolutely true - but doubt highly MSN sell the info on, that's a bit far fetched but do provide security services with what could be construed as 'suspect' information.

Mate, you even mention Tony Blairs name, or any current world leader/president etc on the phone and instantly you will have someone listening in to your conversation! Or it will be recorded. Other known key words of course are BOMB, TERRORIST/TERRORISM, IRA, TALIBAN etc.... This shit has been going on for AGES!
