RobotsDinner writes "In what sounds like a dystopian sci-fi plot, the Home Office has made public plans to outfit the country's internet with upstream data recorders to log pretty much everything that passes through.

Under Government plans to monitor internet traffic, raw data would be collected and stored by the black boxes before being transferred to a giant central database.

The vision was outlined at a meeting between officials from the Home Office and Internet Service Providers earlier this week.

'Tis the dream of each programmer, Before his life is done, To write three lines of APL, And make the damn things run.
