Personally, I have no problems complying with a search warrant. What does concern me is that the Govt may decide to pass a bill that is a copy of the UK RIP bill. It is a vague piece of legislation, and is open to abuse. It is surprising that it was actually passed, given the outcry it caused. A well thought out piece of legislation would go a long way towards protecting us, as service providers, without draconian infringement of the end user's personal rights. The RIP bill has done a lot to hurt the e-commerce industry in the UK. Hopefully, Govt will actually think (rare concept) and consult the industry before putting something in place that makes our lives even more difficult. After all, if you have a fully meshed network, do you really want to introduce single points of failure just so GCSB/SIS/Police/(insert dept here) can sniff traffic?
