it's an invasion of privacy, yes. but if you have nothing to hide it shouldn't really worry you. it's only a problem if you're a criminal.

"We simply do not believe that terrorists are using Myspace to plan terrorist attacks"
" Okay, we'll show you. Can we show them some evidence please Brian"
"Yep, sure, just give me twenty fours hours to rustle something compelling up"
"But... you're just going to fabricate soemthing now, that's not proof"
"Would you like us to blow up a bus to bring the message home? Will that be enough to convince you?"
"Erm... "

Privacy concens: yes. But not sure if its the 'end' as I don't think the ability to send messages through 3rd party sites (social networking, auction houses, etc) is so unique that any restriction on this would result in the removal of an essential characteristic of the web. Its just messaging.

The 'real life' example wold be tracking peoples conversations at a pub or following suspects around when they meet in innocuous places. That sort of surveillance is happening already.

Its hardly going to stop terrorists. Wouldnt they just swap messages via other messages or get Mr IT Terrorist to come up with some secure website that uses encrypted messaging?!!!!!
I like the way in that news story they try to make us think this breach of privacy is a good thing because it helped convict the london bombers.
Yeah, but it didnt f*cking PREVENT it happening though did it?!
The government knows everyone you poke at the moment anyway, they's just keeping schtum.
