But what gets forgotten in the debate is that your information will be available for other people to hack. Won't happen I hear people saying, the government will use ISO9701 standard cloud servers that are fully secure with only the latest in security software.
Is that right? Not so - as Government tenders don't always go to the best option, but rather the best price, which could end up impacting the level of security your emails get stored under.
Just look at today's blunder by the Australian Government
A new computer system was introduced today, which because of flaws, allowed other MP's to see each other emails and calendars. So the government couldn't even introduce a system for a few hundred MP's, yet we are meant to trust them with creating a system to store 22,000,000 peoples emails. Yeah Right.
Our governments, both past and present, Liberal and Labour, cannot be trusted with any project this size - look at some of their other stand outs in recent years:
- Submarines which required years of additional work because they were too noisy.
- Buying rust bucket ships from the US, that weren't even inspected prior.
- The Insulation Bats.
- The builders retirement fund, sorry school building program.
- And my favourite, the Helicopters that won't fly.
We need more competent people in power, rather than current crop of "Career Politicians".
And say no to the proposed email and internet storage laws!
