Re: It's time...
You sure? I know there's a self explanatory expectation with regards to privacy and DE and NL, but times they are a changing...
As you can see in this Heise article today, Seehofer is trying to bring government snooping, hacking, Trojan use, and node (FRA) surveillance up to NSA levels.
As for NL, this stopped at the moment government there for example introduced RIPE and node monitoring (and FW to "friendlies"), ordered all telcos to cooperate unconditionally, its lawinforcement has the highest count of phone tapping in the western world, labelled all its citizens with an unique identity number, and discourages all cash transactions actively. On top of that the Dutch government doesn't "bend" this just for "state biz" but also likes to facilitate to make a nice buck (in line with Dutch culture): guess why Google loves their shiny new (state sponsored) Groningen center?
So you were saying..?
