| 1339657 | 2013-05-04 21:31:00 | Got to wonder how deeply they dig into systems, or will eventually dig into other businesses systems. If I go into Briscoes, and buy 6 pressure cookers, will anyone notice? Must remember to pay in cash ;) |

| 1339658 | 2013-05-04 21:42:00 | Realistically I cannot see what the average law abiding citizen has to worry about. I do believe that the bad guys have more to worry about under this setup. Under an Interception Warrant things are much easier for law enforcement agencies to intercept communications made by the bad guys. Extracted from the Telecommunications (Interception Capability) Act 2004 Purpose and principles 5 Purpose The purpose of this Act is to ensure— (a) that surveillance agencies are able to effectively carry out the lawful interception of telecommunications under an interception warrant or any other lawful interception authority; and (b) that surveillance agencies, in obtaining assistance for the interception of telecommunications, do not create barriers to the introduction of new or innovative telecommunications technologies; and (c) that network operators and service providers have the freedom to choose system design features and specifications that are appropriate for their own purposes. 6 Principles The following principles must be applied by persons who exercise powers and carry out duties under this Act if those principles are relevant to those powers or duties: (a) the principle that the privacy of telecommunications that are not subject to an interception warrant or any other lawful interception authority must be maintained to the extent provided for in law: (b) the principle that the interception of telecommunications, when authorised under an interception warrant or any other lawful interception authority, must be carried out without unduly interfering with any telecommunications. |

Unless it was also true that you worked at a KFC outlet (they used to cook the chicken in cottonseed oil-filled pressure cookers years ago when I worked part-time for them). But then you probably wouldn't be shopping at Briscoes (come to think of it, does ANYONE actually shop at Briscoes???)... |
