USA Gvt. to get all details of international money transfers.

USA bees to eat all details of international honey transfers.

Well, I guess the majority of people completely missed the point and took this as another opportunity to jump on someone to make themselves feel big.

I was merely posting to inform/gauge people's opinions on this, and it's automatically assumed I'm "morally outraged" and sitting crying in the corner about this breach of my human rights.

The heckles of "liar" and "clown" are somewhat ungentlemanly.

It's nice to see this forum is staying consistent in at least something... The decline in quality and community spirit. GG OCUK

The reason they do it is to feed the data through a modeller which looks for suspicious financial trading. No need to worry imo, they just don't have the manpower to snoop on every single financial transaction. Ultimately if you don't like it then don't route any transactions through the USA

Useless and pointless wastes of OCUK forum server memory
