Hey VB major respect for raising this as an issue and you are absolutely right that the arguments are hugely flawed. I would say that the real threat comes from The data Communications Bill which has been pushed in to the long grass for the moment as its too contraversial.
I am hoping that reason will win out and our political leaders will realise that tracking our internet use is just plain wrong and represents a real step back in terms of the relationship between the individual and the state.
In terms of your stance with encrypting the site, I'm not sure it is entirely necessary but things like the alleycat races and some discussions could be used against the site and cycling in general if journo's or busybodys got hold of them. However, would that restrict access to newbies who are searching for fixed info?
