Damn, My ISP Bill Ain't High Enough??

So, where are the TeraBytes of storage to store all these logs going to come from?? Yup, you got it: the subscribers' wallets. Oh, and pissed at your ISPs performance, now? Think how bad it will be when they have to log every packet and send ship those logs over the network to a centralized logging center.

Bleah.

The line between benign and malignant when it comes to privacy laws in the United States becomes thinner every day.

I guess we will just consider it a criminal tax.

Everyone will need to pay highe rates just so they might have the opportunity to gain some information on potential criminal acts.

Genius.

Every day, "why not give up this? You might be a little safer because of it... At least after the fact".

Yes, and the knuckle-dragging denizens known as BushCo WarOnTerror Bots will be along shortly to provide ample ignorance argument on why it is a good thing in general for an ISP to compile tracking logs of every single thing a web surfer does while using the Internet.

This is what reality looks like when a government has declared war on its people and they won't know it until it's too late.
