Where would you go? What country does less surveillance on its own citizens? I'm not being argumentative, I honestly can't think of one... |

| reply to knightmb I agree with you 100%. This is just wrong, and it needs to be stopped. I can understand real-time surveillance on a subject when the proper warrants are obtained, but to insist on blanket surveillance of everything your users do and then to demand the information be stored for two years on top of that is just insane.
Every time I read an article like this it makes me want to renounce my citizenship and leave.

| reply to amigo_boy As an ISP, I can tell you this law would make it as bad as trying to keep a backup of the entire Internet every night. Our ISP is very small and we still push out Gigabits of traffic everyday. Imagine trying to keep all of that for 2 years. I don't think we could buy enough Terabyte drives to meet those needs and thus we've filed a complaint.  |
