c|net is running an article describing Canada's proposed new cyber-crime laws in which possession of compuer viruses would be a crime, a national database of internet users would be established, ISPs would have to reconfigure their networks to make surveillance of users easy for law enforcement, and ISPs would have to keep logs of user activity for up to six months.
The usual cadre of terrorists and child pornographers are brought forth as rational for this initiative, an attempt to comply with the Council of Europe's cyber-crime treaty.
(Thanks, MrHappy!)
