I don’t know how it is, but there are a lot of librarians associated with the site. Beside the fact that one of the 4 contributers to this dump is a hardcore librarian, we have a few others that comment, and more beside that that lurk. Yes, I know about you lurkers.

It is with a small bit of glee that I bring you librarians this news of your people taking on and beating the FBI in a showdown over the National Security Letter (NSL), which forces a citizen to comply with its contents while maintaining a permanent gag order so that you couldn’t bitch, or blog, or otherwise tell anybody about it.

Thats right, it came from the Patriot Act.

ArsTechnica has the nuts and bolts, but I wanted to stick this on here, and raise my glass to the noble librarian. May you shush children with pride!
