RIP article

[David Hansen]

There is an excellent article on RIP at 
<http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/libertycentral/2009/jul/22/ripa
-surveillance-council-snoopers>

The final paragraph is worth repeating,"We should not be tinkering with 
such legislation, we should be rewriting it from scratch, defining what 
is allowed under what circumstances, and with independent scrutiny. 
Instead of employing high court judges to oversee the procedures 
adopted by the authorising officers, we should be using them to assess 
the merits of individual surveillance cases. You want to bug someone? 
Have a good, specific, reason - and get a warrant."
