Zitat des Tages (18.07.2008)

The great irony of Data Retention is that it doesn’t even work against those it is supposedly targeted at. There are plenty of ways around it. [...] The terrorists and serious criminals who use telecommunications as a key part of their activities are surely aware of this technology. Consequently, they can continue their activities having suffered only a minor inconvenience, while the law-abiding citizen has his privacy breached, and is treated like a potential criminal by his own government.
