New law will let govt snoop on your PC

[Faun]

^^
Do you believe in Government babu religiously. I mean they are just the same people as we are and indeed sometimes more corrupt and tainted than us.

While I can encrypt things, infact I see a default doting of this trend in coming years. You will get hardware encrypted hard drives.

PS: Yes atleast I can log who is there using some tools in Linux...lol. And keeping all the unwanted ports closed, but still if someone access my PC through ftp then he can only do what a ftp is defined to. But if a hacker is relentlessly trying to hack my PC then there is very little I can do apart from disconnecting from net for a while. Still someone cant get a direct open access to my PC, he/she has to surmount this dalk with a scabrous effort.

I neither approve nor disapprove people watching pr0n, but having "morality laws" like this sucks. Nobody has any right to decide what an indivudual does in his private PC as long as it does not do any harm to anybody.

India is becomming more like Saudi Arabia with draconian anti-liberal laws.

They should be increasing jail-terms for corrupt politicians and hang serial killers and make stricter laws to control such activities instead of arresting harmless guys who defy "morality norms".

i guess ur right................

but why should they take so much trouble and inspect each and every PC out there in India............instead they could have taken steps to ban all those porn and warez sites on the internet...............alleast thats what is going on here in UAE...here ISP block all those sites which are even remotely close to porn or against the national interest

Thats plain WRONG. I say it again. WRONG.
India has always stood for personal freedom and religious freedom when it does not interfere with other people's lives. Then why this I ask. Warez sites may cause economic issues to companies who make the software and hence their ban is quite justified. But comeon, freedom of expression can in NO way be stopped. If you don't like it, don't see it. Simple as that. I use it as my motto.

Already, they are suing people in orkut for creating hate groups against politicians. I was like WTF ? RSS/MNS/VHP go on promoting hate against muslims in India on baseless grounds and they are pacified, while people voicing out opinions against politicians are procecuted.

What if my comp. got infected by virus and launched DOS attack against someone, am i responsible??[Even after i have some antivirus]
So i buy second hand comp. i have no idea if it is stolen am i going to be charged with receiving stolen comp. resources?

The law is already passed, without a mention in media. That 26/11 thing drowned out all else. The media is only worried of the act that aims to regulate media, rest of citizens be damned!
