Greenguy's Board - NY AG Pushing ISPs To Use Spyware

So he wants to smear ISPs if they don't agree to go along with his plan!

This should be right up there with the free broadband. You must be a pervert if you don't use the governments free(censored) internet.

Quote:

He's been sending ISPs a presentation from a company called Brilliant Digital that's offering a "deep packet inspection" system that could scan every file sent across an ISP's network and try to determine if it was child porn.

So we have an Australian spyware company that wants to scan every bit of traffic and identify it (even if it's encrypted), and it's being pushed by a US politician who has a history of trying to publicly shame companies into doing his bidding, even if it involves lying about them. And, the whole damn thing almost certainly violates the 4th Amendment.
