I doubt this is going anywhere, the Govt believes it is just an excuse to beat them up over the infamous 'missing CDs'. Which of course it is.

I can't help thinking that asking the Government to protect citizens from surveillance is a bit like asking the fox to guard the henhouse.
Our officials have always spied on us and recorded data as much as current technology would allow. I suspect much of the development of surveillance technology has been driven by government spending.
We may achieve better results from the media, who love a good scandal. Even then, people have such short memories that I suppose that would be quickly forgotten.
I'd like to add my thanks to the people dedicating so much time and effort to this.
