LuLu's "point" is silly.
She is basically claiming that the government might as well be given the passwords since they can get any information they wish anyway.
If that were true, then they wouldn't NEED the passwords.
But of course, it's not true. LuLu is being ridiculous again.
In actuality, they do have access to a wide array of information already and nobody says they don't. But there are things they do not have ready access to. These are the things for which they need the passwords. For example, if the gubmint does not know that my username (Ilar) belongs to a real life human being named Anthony Weiner [
] then they may not associate might more or less anonymous words here at USMB with the real life me.
If they do fucking need it someday to further a legitimate investigation into a terrorist threat or a criminal matter, they can find out who Ilar is in real life the old fashioned way: get a judge to sign a warrant. But until then, they can fumble around in the fucking dark. As it should be.
