As an Indian, I know protesting against this bill is the best we can do but it seems like most of the people in country arent aware about this or simply dont care, this is disastorous!!

    For a split second I thought this was in the US.

    And honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone told me this is already Law in the US.

      I wouldn’t doubt that it is, and we just don’t know about it.

      The NSA (CIA?, well Fed assholes) installed surveillance gear in Verizon data centers in the 90’s so they could listen to any phone call or read any text message. It was reported about 1996ish.

      Never heard that it was removed, or if they were in other telecom systems.

      So yea, my guess is it’s already there. Even worse, people in the right positions are probably controllable (again, good old CIA/NSA at work, thanks Hoover, ya jackass). Don’t need a law or specialized gear when the right people are already compromised.

      Just read up on why Bill Gates even got an audience with IBM…
