I dont claim to be a journalist. I hold myself to higher standards of transparency and disclosure.

Our government is just way too interested in mucking around in Silicon Valley by creating and enforcing rules based on little or no understanding of the consequences.

Im nearly certain that Google accessed my Gmail account after I broke a major story about Google.
