I don't deny that the Reg is somewhat outspoken in it's opinions, but this
is quite true. The EU is trying to shove a lot of stuff past us - there's
also seven year data retention by ISP's, and they're quite keen on the
British RIP Act too - and since most people don't understand the
complexities involved, particularly as they relate to people like us,
they'll get it all through unless people make a stand against them. This is
of course particularly true with our own technophobic government.

"Tell", Donncha, one more thing to /tell/ the politicians. :)
