> In my opinion he's wrong that he'll never be critical of his government. Obama won't rule forever, even if he does like him, and I assume he'll witness at least a few other governments during the rest of his life. Chances are he will become critical of his government, especially if things turn much worse (as the trend is right now). What if the government intends to cut his social benefits? What if the government introduces mandatory army enlisting? And so on and so on. Nobody can stay "non-critical" of the government for too long.

But I am openly critical of my government (the UK), both online and offline. I just don't feel there's any significant risk in this, or anything else in my online activities. And that is the reason why I haven't changed any of my online habits.
