The first item in this week's internal newsletter at work: "On January 28, Canada celebrates http://www.staysafeonline.org/data-privacy-day/]Data Privacy Day."

But at no point did the article say anything about how to celebrate it... But, hey, it's data privacy.

Pity it's not on the U.S. calendar. Might be interesting to show up to work dressed up like that.

Encrypting some files to celebrate  the day.
I've been aiming to suggest the encrypting ever since this thread was started, today I got the time and promptly came across my second suggestion.
Don't cross into the United States with any "smart" electronics, a judge ruled on the 25th that any border agent can take it without probable cause.

Arrrrggghhh... Normally I'd chalk it up to Fox news being what it is... but a Google search shows that it's the real deal. Any word if they can appeal?
No change there - I haven't had any right to bring electronics into the States since just after 9/11 - except that US citizens are also being treated this way now.

There's a reason I didn't bring my laptop to DC....
