The chief executive of Kaspersky Lab has laughed off fears the UK's becoming a Big Brother state, claiming the Government's plans to monitor internet communications don't go far enough.

I made the mistake of finding out exactly what the "law" says the government and authorities have a right to know about me as a person. It's enough to make you want to set up fake IDs and live off the grid.

Hmm...not a good thing for a software company to say. Definitely not a good thing for a security software company to say. If that is their attitude - as in, the snooping doesn't go far enough - I'd have second thoughts about installing their software on my PC.

Well, they are a Russian company, after all - maybe they miss the 'good old days' of Soviet style Party Control ;)

My old boss had a better line: "We work on the Communist principle here; the reward for a job well done is no punishment..." :?
