How much privacy can the government take away from us?

So I read Prof. Macek's entry on another legislation that infringes our privacy and our freedom to use the Internet however we wish...it's called H.R. 1981, and would require Internet providers to record your I.P. address and search histories, and to give all that to the Government whenever they ask...

Didn't the Government hand over the Internet to private companies YEARS ago?  So why does it look like they're trying to take it back?


Thank you Government for trying to ruin the Internet AGAIN...how long is this going to happen?  We, as American's, have a right to privacy....this new law is about to infringe on just that....
