Sounds very similar to the crap we've had forced on us in Australia that came into effect last month.

Hi Dave.
The bill is still at the draft stage and will have to be passed in both Houses.
The worrying thing is there doesn't seem that much opposition in parliament, so lets hope that will change.
I'd contact my local MP, but he was caught in parliament playing "candy crush"
Mmmmmmm so he must be knowledgeable about all things computer
