Trackable? Sure, can't argue with that. Though I'm a little unsure as to how
far they actually *would* go... When I was at uni, they had fuck all
security against what was run or viewed on the net, but that's probably one
place that was an exception. It's not so much what they decide to do, just
the feasibility of making it work that gets me wondering. I mean, you take
the logs of everyone's activities for everything they did on the computers
on campus for one day, and that'd probably take up a considerable amount of
space, not to mention the time you'd need to go over them for each person as
well... I guess what I'm saying is that even though you're probably being
'watched', the risk doesn't seem quite that great to me...
Gah, enough OT rambling. Xx
