Can anyone explain to me what this solves?

It sounds like the GCSB wants the right to help design your network?

I cant actually think of a benefit other than the GCSB has a list of non public exploits they can check against? Or check they do have an exploit for it as the case may be?

I understand that they are claiming to want to protect the public telco space but isn't that interfering with the free market and introducing a load of bureaucracy?

Trying to understand.. Need more beer?

So the TICSA came into effect today.

Things to remember: The Act requires that network operators register their information with the Police Registrar. Details here: http://www.police.govt.nz/about-us/programmes-and-initiatives/telecommunicat...

The NCSC has also produced some guidance for Network Operators which is worth a read.

The GCSB have also published a list of exceptions for Operators with regard to what you're required to notify them of.
