Vietnam to require surveillance app at 'net cafés, Google protests

    A new law in Vietnam law requires all "retail Internet locations" (including 'net cafés, hotels, airports, even offices) to install a government-approved, server-side filtering and surveillance application by 2011. In a blog post expressing concern about the new regulation, Google says this will allow the government to monitor user activities and block access.

    This is quite alarming and is like something that could possibly be introduced into other countries that are paranoid about so called terrorism and government leak outs. How long will it take before Australia, the UK etc to follow suit, :rolleyes:
