| During World War 2, the French telephone system kept non-expiring records, just like Microsoft and many business & governments do today. Then the Nazis invaded, seized the command & control of France, and looked up all those records. They discovered who was connected to who, rounded up all the "intellectuals", educators, and their contacts ... and shot them. Today, France no longer keeps non-expiring telephone records. Lesson, anyone? | | Live-N-Learn | | Date: 2008-04-24, 10:36 GMT |
