No, you're wrong. Theres no privacy with even encryption used today because quantum computing can break any known keys. Given sufficient time and effort any encryption can be broken. You want privacy? Sorry you cant have, I'll tap into your brain waves and learn everything about or else I'll drug you and get everything out of you. Law? Who cares about it? A rogue sysadmin might be already reading all the porno websites you visited today! So please dont give false hope to people to protect their privacy using encryption / laws or whatever coz theres no such thing as privacy! -- Regards, Dinesh A.
