Ross Anderson is actually quite impressive, he's able to switch at will between speaking about technology and then addressing the legal aspects in native legalese.<br /><br />Also, it appears that David Ormand's arguments always rest on only the 'right sorts' of people having access to the information gathered.chris stileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16220270505988683271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-6238795164730593722015-12-11T12:41:21.559+00:002015-12-11T12:41:21.559+00:00RevK you're mentioned in PcPro magazine this m...RevK you're mentioned in PcPro magazine this month regarding encryption and the snoopers charter, they also link to your blogSteve Hopkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01060389132752495657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-82602784910935424422015-12-11T10:42:09.814+00:002015-12-11T10:42:09.814+00:00Once these powers are available, the MP's can ...Once these powers are available, the MP's can then sell them to a commercial company!
