I am yet to find anybody out side of this forum who thinks the ASIC system will have any effect apart from making our security agencies look silly.
you may well be right but guess what? Like it or hate it - ASICs are here to stay. Emotive comments on this forum will make not one iota of difference in the goverments thinking on this. Perhaps you could put some of the energy that you expend here in writing to the Dept of Infrastructure expressing your concerns and highlighting why variious aspects of the Act and Regs are inappropriate. I know I do.
