Re: Oh no no no no

As other posters pointed out, the fault obviously lies with government workers using file-sharing programs, and miconfiguring them, and agencies letting them get away with this non-work activity. There is no "threat to national security" from people using p2p at home.

But you're onto a point that others may be missing. The "national security" excuse is currently effective with the public so the politicians exploit it for everything they want to push. And they've been wanting to find some excuse to clamp down on internet freedom.

So of course it doesn't make any sense; it's a pretext for a different agenda.
