janie48 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Do you think will be an intrusion on our freedom and liberty? If so would that bother you? I expect it will be some time before its fully operational. I'm not certain about it yet,not sure how its going to effect us. Can anyone enlighten me? I expect if it helps catch criminals and potential terrorists thats got to be a good thing. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2123512/New-snooping-law-allow-Government-access-everybodys-emails-texts-internet-browsing.html?ITO=google_news_rss_feed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immortal-tec Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 The Government has already done much worse things to our freedoms and liberty than any so called Terror organisation could dream of doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloomdido Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 It scares me. China and Iran have things like this in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernStar Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I think it's an attack on our privacy and I don't trust bungling officialdom with my privacy one little bit, it's only a matter of time before this listening agency starts abusing it's role or staff begin selling info on the qt or even worse.

davi Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Apparently according to a report by the Sunday Times, all that stuff is in place more or less with i phone Apps. They(the makers) can already read all your texts, and view all the images you do. Also they can make a premium rate phone call from your phone without you knowing. Privacy? If any one wants that, they are going to have to stop communicating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubydazzler Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I expect if it helps catch criminals and potential terrorists thats got to be a good thing.I don't think it will help that much and, therefore, I don't think it would be a good thing. They already listen into our phone calls randomly, and track us on our mobiles. Now no-one uses the phone much, they have to keep tabs on us somehow. It's logical they'll want to use the current popular medium to do so. Aren't they already doing this in the USA? I also agree with Northern Star, you can't rely on confidentiality from the people employed to operate it. Or so experience would appear to tell us. So on balance, not a good thing to have in place.
