This makes sense....but I have to ask...how is this control manifest in ownership as alleged? One can see that information can be used for blackmail or similar abuses which end in legal problems for people or even worse. I suppose if you consider killing and torture fine using illl gotten data may be just another means to identify any person who would resist or be some sort of political threat to those in control... just another tool for the palace to keep them in control and the serfs in their places.
This all might have a chilling effect on free speech and communications... imtimidating people. That's not good at all. I'm wondering however if this is really not a tenebkle idea... as it becomes almost impossible to deal with millions and millions of discontents discovered via this surveillance in any other manner than to shut down the internet of engage in mass arrests and so forth. Is this spying only going to be used by them to route out what they think are the leaders? Intimidation does work... maybe that is the approach to force people to supine positions... make a few examples of what happens when you stand up or stand out and assume that people will act in their self preservation interest and zip it up and do as they are told?
I am thinking this is going to back fire for some reason. I don't see them turning off the http://www... abut I do see some nasty examples being made of people whenever they can. I don't see too many dissenters being silenced yet... bloggers and so forth. Their behavior toward those who expose criminality is telling. They are looking desperate with Assange and Snowdon and the treatment of those they get their hands on is chilling and probably less intimidating to then they had hoped for. I hope more come out of the woodwork...
