Colleges Protest Call to Upgrade Online Systems by bucy at 2:58 pm EDT, Oct 22, 2005 |
The federal government, vastly extending the reach of an 11-year-old law, is requiring hundreds of universities, online communications companies and cities to overhaul their Internet computer networks to make it easier for law enforcement authorities to monitor e-mail and other online communications.
Ahhh CALEA... |

I sincerely cannot wait for this to be challenged. Wiretaps are one thing and not all that easy to do. Tapping into digital communications compromises the entire network. This is a fundamentally bad idea. |
