Exclusive! Obama White House Collects Social Network Data!
"The White House is collecting and storing comments and videos placed on its social-networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube without notifying or asking the consent of the site users, a failure that appears to run counter to President Obama's promise of a transparent government and his pledge to protect privacy on the Internet."

There's no privacy issue in collecting things post on your Twitter or FB pages.
It's not like someone posts on the White House FB page and then expectes the White House to not read it; the entire point is that it IS a communication to the Government!
(As it says, "placed on its social networking sites"... it, the official Twitter and FB pages of the White House/President/etc.)
That doesn't "appear" to run counter to privacy protection. It simply doesn't, at all.
