Hawaii make keep track of all websites visited

As stated in the CNET article:

"Even the Justice Department has only lobbied the U.S. Congress to record Internet Protocol addresses assigned to individuals--users' origin IP address, in other words. It hasn't publicly demanded that companies record the destination IP addresses as well."

Here is the problem: individuals--users' origin IP address. With NAT how are the privacy invaders going to identify who was using the broadband connection. In the case of a shared connection more incorrect identification and malicious prosecutions.

When IPv6 is deployed everyone on the planet can be assigned a personal IP address which they will be required to use to log into the internet along with their biometric ID. That way the websites visited by them can be tracked.

That hasn't stopped the music or movie industries from suing the person who pays for the Internet connection. Never mind the fact that they have NO WAY of knowing who used the connection.
