Tim Berners-Lee urges government to stop the snooping bill
www.guardian.co.uk – April 17, 2012

“…Extension of surveillance powers ‘a destruction of human rights’

“The government’s controversial plans to allow intelligence agencies to monitor the internet use and digital communications of every person in the UK suffered a fresh blow on Tuesday when the inventor of the world wide web warned that the measures were dangerous and should be dropped….”

He says:

“The amount of control you have over somebody if you can monitor internet activity is amazing…”

But I’m sure it has already been going on, never mind the law.

He makes these arguments, but the people in charge know what kind of system they are creating.
