What exactly are you scared of when much more sophisticated eavesdropping technology already exists and is being used.

it is but is mostly in the hands of government and their minions MI5 et al
most of the time the info they gather never goes anywhere as they don't like sharing between themselves !
now while i might not like it i still trust them more than i will ever trust a for profit company
its our data and we should decide who gets it who makes money with it and how much we get out of it
plus unless we do get our own life time ip's promised by the new ip system touted it is the privacy of family individuals i feel even more concerned about as mentioned before there are children in lots of these house holds who may have things they do not want parents to see or find out about for various reasons
and on those lines i am even more worried now seeing some info being put up that https site may be able to be looked at through this as i have to deal with on occasions child protection issues as part of a charity i help run
i should not have to worry about my isp snooping on that and the idea that they ignore certain things doesn't put my mind at rest
