It's in the courts right now in Ca, if the "authorities" should be allowed to monitor the internet/email activity of registered, and released sex offenders, I believe a law was already passed to OK it, but now is being challenged in court right now, and so far it looks like it's going to be struck down,

Sex offenders already have to register, if you haven't looked at the Megan's law website, and checked your neighborhood for registered offenders you should, you will be surprised, if not angered, especially if you have kids, it shows exactly where they live, address, and what their offence was, if it was abusing a child, whatever, it shows it all, so on one hand the first reaction may be to say YES, absolutely the internet activity of THESE people should be monitored, I personally think it should, they have made their bed and now they have to lay in it, but then others might argue that if that door is cracked open, how long before it swings open all the way and everyone/anyone could be fully monitored? for any reason deemed adequate, tough call.
