P.S. Zone Alarm is apparently put out by CheckPoint, which is one of
those companies that collects and collates information on all of us.
Isn't CheckPoint the company that had records on several hundred
thousand consumers stolen a few months ago?
I have heard that the Pentagon (or maybe NSA) has a contract with
CheckPoint, which will complement the data on us that NSA has been
getting from the telephone companies. The government has been claiming
that individuals can't be identified from the phone company data. But
if the phone company data are married to the CheckPoint data, it is
apparently a different matter.
I'm not trying to start a battle here. I'm just a little shocked to
see that Zone Alarm is owned by CheckPoint, a company I had understood
to be the enemy.
I will see if Zone Alarm behaves itself. If not, I will uninstall it
and go back to the Windows firewall.
