I noticed in many developed countries, users of public WIFI are required to provide some basic information about themselves using a captive portal. Whether they provide the correct biodata is another issue. I'm not sure we should always water down government attempt to provide a safe environment for it's citizens. Why don't we be part of the solution and try to give suggestions on how to implement proper safeguards, while of-course at the same time ensuring the important issue of human rights and cost is taken into consideration.

Yeah I read that story in the business daily and laughed..
However, I suggest we ignore the media stories on these important bills and read them ourselves.
Grace, may it be a good idea for the list to create a few days for people to comment on the bills and provide a solid memorandum to the CA?

Thanks & Regards

This seems incredibly short sighted and will not work in the slightest.

Matatus, hotels and other public places offering Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) services will have to install CCTV cameras to monitor Internet users as part of the fight against cybercrime. ----
