tell me I am wrong

Milan.

I fear you are correct Milan.

If the convicted sex offenders need to register their email addresses, next it will be anyone convicted for any reason, and then everyone else - guilty or not.

Not only will it be email addresses, but eventually IP addresses (by co-opting/threatening ISPs and other providers).

Think of the advantages for our Jackie!

Publicly, It will help combat paedos, terrorists, ID theives, and protect 'hard working families' etc. etc.

Covertly, it will be another huge step for our jackbooted government in monitoring and recording almost everything we do.

The anonymity, unaccountability and freedom of speech the Internet offers just doesn't sit well with our lords and masters, and they fully intend to do something about it.

The total-surveillance state is almost upon us.

The UK will be pioneering this, with the Yanks not far behind.
