cranky said:I guess I'm talking about the intentions behind the Act: it presumes every citizen is a suspected enemy of the state and the Internet and technology a medium for them to propagate malice and harmful/objectionable content. And that is my biggest problem - the presumed guilt of every netizen. There are 5 million or so internet users, how are they going to monitor every single piece of communication? How will this Act be implemented by the 500 (?) strong Cybercell and a totally uneducated police force? And what are the safeguards for ordinary, innocent citizens?
It needs to be seen in a broader light with ID cards as a compliment.
Will it prevent the next attrocity by implicating anyone who supports it by increasing the audit trail.
What kind of effect will this all have on terrorism ?
