Seems the big companies are trying to use there combined weight to take control of your internet and telephone privacy , I am seriously disgusted by their greed :evil:

Why should the ordinary man in the street lose rights hard fought for long ago to some greedy lawyers who are too lazy to find evidence to take alleged file sharers to court , how much easier to just try to force the ISP with a threat of liability into disclosing customer records.

Well putting that item together ,with MR Gates dream of buddying up to the content providers (record/movie companies ), I would be extremely worried if I lived in the US , and of course the ripples outside the US would no doubt affect us all. :shock: :evil:
