FBI wants records kept of Web sites visited

[Foxy Brown]

The FBI is pressing Internet service providers to record which Web sites customers visit and retain those logs for two years, a requirement that law enforcement believes could help it in investigations of child pornography and other serious crimes.

FBI Director Robert Mueller supports storing Internet users' "origin and destination information," a bureau attorney said at a federal task force meeting on Thursday.

If your not doing anything wrong, then this is no big deal.

Sorry, but I hate it when people use the "nothing to hide" argument.

Let FBI buy Hard Drives, they will need more than 1000 terabytes per day.  So the US government will go bankrupt faster. 

Each website visits will ping to all the advertisement, google ads, microsoft ads, photo servers, ...   May be this is the Hard Disk manufactures' ploy to make money.
