UK Employers May Read Employees' Mail
Martin Spamer writes: "The BBC reports that today the UK introduces Controversial new regulations (RIP) giving employers sweeping powers to monitor their workers' e-mails and Internet activity. Campaigners say the rules, under the new Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act, are an assault on personal privacy." I guess I just don't see it. If I was gonna bad mouth my boss, I'd use my domain as the e-mail address, and PGP crypt the message. It's not so simple when you're using, say, a corporate laptop on your couch at home on a Saturday night tho.This bill was passed a while ago - but this is the day it takes effect.
