Great news for net pirates like myself

Sounds like the French will carry ahead with this Orwellian spying campaign against their own people but hopefully this vote will helpt deter the British government from following France's lead.

I think the idea of ISP's being forced to monitor all traffic is disgusting, akin to the Royal Mail being told they must open and read every parcel and letter.

Not only does it add extra work for these companies whose services are already shit, and that will consequently force up prices for consumers but it is an outrageous invasion of privacy.

I hope there will continue to be objections to this crazy new law.

As soon as they develop the technology to monitor what people are downloading they're going to pass laws to stop file sharing, p2p etc. Enjoy the free stuff on the net while it lasts.
