   And this has little to do with "protecting children" (unless Towes is a   
   child!) I bet when you dig into the meat of this Bill, the RIAA will be   
   seen to be behind it. The previous Bill failed, as it required ISPs to   
   spy for the recording industry. I think this draconian Bill will also   
   give RIAA and their ilk the access they previously asked for. Maybe not   
   in the Bill directly, maybe in an amendment.   
      
   The simple FACT is why is the Internet exempt from due process? The   
   Police can't tap my phone without a warrant, yet my ISP is expected to   
   give them carte blanche?
