Just found out that Echelon, the US government's super spying program, uses Berkeley DB. An Alias episode showed Echelon being compiled, with a phony "compilation progress dialog" (do I wish I had one of those !), but the screen itself was full of actual gcc lines compiling, among other files, crdel_auto.c
Knowing that the US government uses BDB suddenly makes me a whole lot less worried about my privacy being invaded.
