Good. Hopefully this will make people more aware of the consequences of what they share on the internet. With the IP bill in parliament at the moment looking set to pass with minor amendments, this could not be more timely.

That IP bill is a horror show and it's passing with a wink and a nod, I'm fast losing what little faith I had in Government to do the right thing.

We seem to have the worst government we've had in my life time (or perhaps I'm just politically more aware of whats going on).

Id be more worried by misuse of personal data by insurance companies who have no oversight at all.

With full support from both the Tories and Labour, there's nowhere serious to turn.

Yep, We really need to get rid of FPTP but that requires the turkeys voting for Christmas and the last campaign was foul.
