Stop and think...

Ok, let's say they pass this. Your home router isn't going to become illegal. It's doesn't mask your IP address. You still have the assigned IP address from your ISP. Yes, it hides your PRIVATE network address but not your assigned IP address which is what they'll use to find you and break down your door.

Settle down and apply just a tad of rational thought to this....

What do most people use inside their homes to begin with? 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x which are private IP addresses anyways. The IP Police are going to look at 10.0.0.3 and trace this to you how? THEY CAN'T. Because it's not a valid address out there in cyberspace. Again they are going to see your IP address your ISP gave to you, raid your house, use a blanket warrant to take all your computer, and find out which one you sent it from.

Why don't you all think before you react. Using a router with NAT is NOT hiding or changing the originating address.

@pipex.com		 I dont aggree at all it sounds to me that this is just another excuse for the goverment to spy on what people are doing on the net.This would mean stopping people from using proxy / socket servers to mask their traffic.

Minneapolis, MN		 Maybe not NAT per say but it does prevent the use of remailers that are used for legit purposes that strip the header info off or any type of anonimizers (sp?) and maybe even able to be applied to PGP. That is what concerns me.
