I love the PR talk like "Premium Browsing", it gives me such a warm fuzzy, wuzzy feeling, but then i am not a child so it means nothing to me.

American intelligence agencies may soon be able to access the most private and personal details of British citizens.

Under an agreement being negotiated between the EU and Washington., U.S. agencies including the CIA will be allowed to view details of bank accounts, travel plans and even the sites individuals visit on the internet.

A secret document giving details of the agreement has been leaked to the New York Times.

Nice to see the EU and UK have some backbone.
