LOPPSI2, France state-sanctioned computer Trojans

France has cearly ambition to have most tightly montitored and “depolluted” Internet: The French lower house, the National Assembly, has just passed a security bill known as LOPPSI2, which is “grab bag of security items that includes state-sanctioned computer Trojans, a massive new database of citizen data (dubbed “Pericles”), and a requirement that ISPs start censoring sites on a government blacklist” – quoting ArsTechnica.

Infamous HADOPI was passed into French law last year, yet France president Nicolas Sarkozy is still not satisfied; in January speech[French PDF] said: “The more we automatically ‘depollute’ networks and servers from all sources of piracy, the less it will be necessary to resort to measures imposed on the ‘Internautes’ [French Internet users]. We must therefore try, without delay, filtering devices.”

In normal words: We will install Trojan virus on Your computer and record everything You do in Internet – but  it’s for Your own good, and tighter we will control You, less that control will be needed.

Mr. Sarko, do You hear yourself?

We are truly feeling for French Internauts, doing anything online will be real minefield. We can help, stay tuned.
