Quote:An antiterror law makes Internet cafe managers check their clients' IDs and track the websites they visit. If you aren't doing anything illegal then no worries. They say if you don't want something seen, don't enter in any way on the internet - email, chat, guestbooks, etc because nothing is truly private. I rarely ever use a public computer but have been to the local library a couple of times to use their computer to access the internet when my home computer was down and to use their computer you have to enter your library card number so if they really want to snoop they can see where I've been, what I've been doing but since I make sure I watch where I visit and what I do on a public computer I'm not concerned. Now, if I was on that computer at the library querying how to build a bomb or something then yes, I would a tad worried but there is the possiblity of it being tracked since I didn't build the computer to know what software is in it and many local government and other organizations have tracking software in their computers already spying on their employees, so why not the public computers. |

Many corporations track their employees WWW and email use. Using the public library and reading books can be dangerous in this country since the Patriot Act was enacted. |
