It's inconceivable that the govt would want to invest on the war on
counterfeit with all the freehand given to the Chinese here. If anything,
the war can be fought at the 'borders', which is where the counterfeits
enter.
This  sniffing is just a violation of privacy, but has other objectives
than tacking counterfeits, unless CA can publicly publish the kind of data
they're collecting and the type of reports they generate.

Shouldn't the public, who are the ones they need to protect (oh, or it is
the multinationals?) be sensitized?
