What liberty is being taken away? Does it really matter that someone is monitoring my phone calls? I promise you that don't care that you went out drinking last weekend and shoplifted a twinkie.

It depends on the porn, and if ponies are involved I spose. If it is put into action people should start using encryption on all communication wherever possible. |
Like I said, again, if you have nothing to hide you shouldn't care.
nordlead said: @twestern, would you seriously give out credit card info, SSN, or any other sensitive info over the phone knowing it is going to be logged? Some people don't do any of that over the internet because of security concerns and for good reason. All they are doing is upping the amount of taxes people will need to pay, and adding another way for identity thieves to steal information. |
If it was just some random person, yes. If it was some person who was monitored themselves then no.
