The feds want ISPs to keep data

The feds are at it again. Data retention seems to be their latest thing. This time they want image-sharing sites to keep data “in case police determine the content is illegal and choose to investigate.” Normall this would be something I’d comment on just on principle. However, this quote just makes it way to funny:

“Only universities and libraries would be excluded, one participant said. ‘There’s a PR concern with including the libraries, so we’re not going to include them,’ the participant quoted the Justice Department as saying. ‘We know we’re going to get a pushback, so we’re not going to do that.’”
