"unwarranted intrusion into the lives of every citizen, it also raises worries about making sure that people's personal information is properly safeguarded, is not misused and can never fall into the wrong hands."

The above is something that the government can never guarentee with its past record.

Also, I think this type of crime fighting isn't really crime fighting as it should be...it really is just big brother.

To me its like carpet bombing the an entire country because there might be a terrorist...innocent people are affected and thats not right.

Why should I risk my personal data being exposed to misuse / abuse just because the government can't figure out another way?

Will the government pass another law which will prosecute any person(s) found to misuse / mis-handle this data or will it simply apologise again when it loses this data as well?
