Government BlackBerry Users More Equal than Others

This is comical:

The Justice Department on Wednesday again voiced fear over a potential shutdown of Research in Motion's BlackBerry service in the U.S., saying it remains unclear how a blackout would impact government workers.

"There are still a number of serious questions to be answered as to how an injunction can be implemented so as to continue BlackBerry service for governmental and other excepted groups," the department said in a brief filed with a federal district court in Virginia.

Oh boo-fucking-hoo! I won't pretend to understand, be interested in, or have an opinion of the specifics of this BlackBerry case, but I do know that any shutdown in service should absolutely impact government workers in exactly the same way it might impact normal, productive, hard-working, intelligent, private citizens.
