\"\"<\/a>Dear Editor: <\/strong>This letter is written to solicit comments re the legality and privacy aspect of one’s e-mail. I listened in amazement on a popular radio talk show on Thursday, August 5 where a ego-seeking, self acclaimed to fame and wanting the people to know journalist actually and unashamedly tread some e-mails not addressed to him, but from one prominent and distinguished lawyer to another re the electoral reform issue. Amazingly neither the host or any other caller\u00a0viewed this as illegal or a breach of privacy.<\/p>\n

The same host and that same ego-seeking journalist made no comment when the P.M’s speech to announce the general elections date was read on their radio station before its intended delivery time at a rally.<\/p>\n

I am very concerned and perturbed at these occurrences which seems to be accepted as normal. Is that a reflection of desperate minds? Or is it accepted as political strategy by any means necessary?<\/p>\n
