FBI wants vBulletin to have a backdoor

[OldSchoolDSL]

So The FBI is trying to pass a law (when did they have such rights to do so?) that would make it a mandatory requirement for any social networking site or software (forums count as social networking) to have an unrestricted, unlimited, and warrant free backdoor.

This includes everyone here.

Forums are also a form of social networking, which this targets.

If you keep up posts like this some men are going to drop by your house and take you to a re-education camp until you learn your place and to vote either democrat or republican like a good American.
