They were not personal attacks. I was merely highlighting your authoritative tone on the issue, when in fact several individuals have been fighting since day one on this, some of us due to personal circumstances have been forced to take a back seat but that doesn't make your views any more valid than anyone elses.

Because you were talking about the difference between public and private communications. I was talking about the difference between published and freely available content versus private communications.

I did no such thing. See above.

Nice assumption but I have done more than just read the relevant legislation. I was in a position to comment on it at inception.

Is this because spend a lot of time on this forum canvassing opinion?!

For interception of communications. You take such a black and white view and I'm afraid that Struan over at out-law.com was actually making a lot of sense when he talked about technical breaches and the fluidity of the legal system. It is just up to us to prove that the breaches were indeed more than technical because they have important consequence.

Get some sleep and think things over. Don't take things so personally just because someone happened to disagree with you. Approaching my 50's I don't need as much sleep as I did when I was your age.
