Perhaps you can answer how:
- ending the Bush policies of enhanced interrogation
- closing and ending the use of black prisons
- limiting rendition (banning rendition to countries that torture their own citizens)
- new DoJ guidelines being prepared to oveturn the Bush policy whereby detainees tried by military commissions in the U.S. would now be able to claim at least some constitutional rights, particularly protection against the use of statements taken through coercive interrogations.
is "more of the same"
Or how the Obama' administration's consultation with privacy groups in meetings at the WH on protecting federal cyberspace is in any way comparable to Bush's TSP (as suggested by alladin) which was done in total darkness, circumvented the existing law (FISA), was blocked from Congressional oversight.....
