    Solving crime is a huge concern for our society, but it should not be accomplished by violating our privacy. Instead, we should focus on improving society so that people don’t have the reason to become criminals in the first place.

But in the end of the day, it looks like the freedom of the world wide web will be the new digital albatross nobody had ever dreamed it would be.
