c0lo writes "No, unfortunately surveillance evangelism has not been made illegal overnight.

The EFF reports that, in an ironic twist of karma, FBI agents arrested a Mexican tycoon named Jose Susumo Azano Matsura at his Coronado, Calif. home on Wednesday as part of a political bribery investigation based on captured emails, seized banking records, and covertly recorded conversations. Azano, and three Americans who acted as his agents, are now facing felony charges in an alleged conspiracy to illegally pump roughly $500,000 into local election campaigns in the border city of San Diego.

Does SoylentNews have contributors from Mexico to share with us some insight (or just local gossip) about this shoddy character?"

    Yes, you are correct. TFS should read shady character, not shoddy character, which frankly, sounds ridiculous. Something like shoddy character development is correct (but not applicable here), but he's a shoddy character is not. Looks like the "editors" are not much better here than on that other site. And you got downmodded for your troubles, which suggests the users aren't much better. Wonderful...
