... but I am as confident as I am   that the Sun will rise tomorrow that it will be safe from terrorists.   After all, we have the children to think about.    It seems that David Clark, who led the development of  the Internet way back in the '70's - did you know there  even was a '70's? -  wants to     create a whole new Internet that will fix many of the problems the   current Internet is plagued with.  The New Internet's engineers will be  much more careful this time around to make sure it works better than  the first one did.    I'm afraid, though, that the engineers are not the only ones  who will be deciding how our New Internet will work.      If one is able to find any   privacy or anonymity in this New Internet,   it will be because of some undiscovered     security hole, which will be   quickly repaired, rather than any kind of conscious design decision.    Probably one reason they are accepting proposals before rolling it out   is to avoid the sort of accidental security holes that enable pr0n,   peer-to-peer filesharing and   left-wing political activism.
