From last year's BBC Charter Review.
SCBG want the BBC privatised, broken up, and constrained to only show programmes that cannot be made by commercial channels.
(Of course, the BBC seem to be working on the first two parts quite successfully by themselves...)
azz: ... and then something comes along that makes you think they just might have a point.
"So to get round the restrictions downloaders are starting to encrypt their files which could make monitoring internet traffic for paedophiles, or for that matter terrorists, virtually impossible."
Yes, BBC, because encryption is EVIL!
I bet the BBC would never be caught using encryption themselves for security. Oh, wait.
Also, it would have taken a whole thirty seconds of research to figure out how to spell "BitTorrent" correctly. Idiots.
I'm informed there's a video of the article in question available here, although it's hidden behind a nasty proprietary Flash interface, so I don't know. Via Moof.
