| Regulation of Investigatory Powers Bill</b></font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">Everyone | |
| in the world is entitled to their own privacy as a human right... | |
| or at least they should be. | |
| The Government prefer to think differently. They hate the idea of | |
| not being | |
| able to have total control over everything and | |
| everyone.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">So | |
| what do they do? They introduce a new bill (<a | |
| href="http://www.stand.org.uk/ripnotes/">The | |
| Regulation of Investigatory Powers Bill</a>).</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">This | |
| 'New Labour' Government is a joke. This new bill has now been | |
| passed after | |
| much opposition from both normal people and businesses... and it | |
| affects everybody.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">They | |
| intend to keep watch on everything you do on the Internet. Every | |
| little packet | |
| you send and receive. Every site you visit. Every person you talk | |
| to. Every | |
| e-mail you send. Everything.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">They | |
| will take away every shred of privacy you have left.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">The | |
| fact is, the Government are scared of the Internet. They are | |
| oblivious to | |
| it. They can't control it... and that scares them.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">New | |
| Labour are 'control freaks' so to speak. They are attempting to | |
| police the | |
| Internet in a way that they would their own country. It just won't | |
| work.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">Sure, | |
| use PGP, good encryption. Ah... but wait... if you refuse to hand | |
| over your | |
| PGP passphrase to the Police you face up to a 2 years imprisonment | |
| and/or | |
| a fine. Pathetic!</font></p> | |

| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">This isn't just a UK problem, far from it. If you are not aware already, | |
| there is the international 'Cybercrime Treaty' which, if passed, will mean | |
| that publishing any sort of exploits, security problems, etc. on the net would | |
| be illegal. What a joke!</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">Countries | |
| need to research very deeply into the impact of these decisions | |
| BEFORE | |
| implementing them.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">Software | |
| companies rely on security holes and patches being released by | |
| hackers in | |
| order to make their software as secure as it can be. Exploits are | |
| an essential asset for the | |
| administrator both to help their understanding of the security | |
| flaw and in order to test their systems for the | |
| vulnerability.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">All | |
| pretty harmless and very useful security related sites which | |
| Administrators | |
| rely on to make sure their servers are up to date with the latest | |
| patches | |
| would be illegal.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">Bugtraq, Alldas, Attrition, etc. and even the discussion of security | |
| holes and exploits would be deemed as illegal if this Cybercrime Treaty is | |
| passed.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="1" color="#FF9933">The | |
| reason for this defacement is to make people, the media, etc. aware that their | |
| Government's are trying to strip them of their freedom and privacy by attempting | |
| to monitor their every move.</font></p> | |
| <p align="left"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" | |
| size="1">"Why | |
| even bother? You won't make a difference." you may ask. | |
| Simple... Because | |
| we can, and we will. There is no harm in trying to make a | |
| difference and it's | |
| better than just sitting back and doing nothing at all.</font></p> | |
